Description
Overview:
The Tension Spring for Generac VB9 Tower Lights is a heavy‐duty coil spring used to maintain controlled tension within key mechanisms on mobile lighting towers. Manufactured from robust steel spring wire, it supports smooth, reliable operation by helping parts return to position and by stabilising assemblies subject to vibration and repeated movement. Sized and engineered for Generac systems, it is suitable for common site units such as the VB9 and TL90. This genuine Al‐Ko component is designed for long service life in outdoor conditions typically encountered on construction sites, event setups, and facilities maintenance, where dependable lighting is essential. It is a practical replacement item for routine servicing and helps restore proper function where the original spring has fatigued, stretched, or lost tension over time.
Key Features:
- Steel construction for high tensile strength and consistent spring rate over repeated cycles
- Helps maintain stable mast and mechanism operation under vibration and load
- Supports smooth return action to reduce strain on winches, latches, and linkages
- Direct-fit design for Generac tower light assemblies to simplify replacement
- Suitable for routine maintenance to restore performance and prevent downtime
- Compact form factor for easy access and fitting with basic hand tools
- Durable build for extended service in outdoor site environments
- Assists in maintaining correct tension to minimise rattle and premature wear on adjoining parts
- Compatible with popular Generac models used across UK hire fleets and site operations
- Cost-effective preventive replacement when original springs show signs of fatigue or elongation
Typical Applications:
Used in Generac tower light mechanisms to control tension in mast assemblies, linkages, and return actions. Commonly applied during maintenance to improve mast raise/lower consistency, reduce vibration, and keep latching or cable systems operating smoothly. Suitable for construction sites, roadworks, events, and temporary lighting setups where reliable, stable illumination is required.
