Torsion Springs from Action Industries
Posted by Action Industries on 3rd Feb 2026
Torsion springs are the most consumable component in a garage door torsion spring system. That’s why Action is updating our standardized torsion spring offering to make sourcing the right spring faster, easier, and more reliable for professional installers.
Our garage door torsion springs category is designed around how technicians actually work: clear filtering, standard and custom options, and dependable truck deliveries when you need product on the ground.
A Smarter Way to Select Torsion Springs
To take the guesswork out of spring replacement, we’ve created a Torsion Spring Guide that walks through the four key factors required to identify the correct spring:
- Wind direction – left-hand or right-hand wound (Wind direction is determined when facing the garage door from inside the garage)
- Inside diameter (ID) – 1-3/4" and 2" standard options
- Wire size – measured by the length of 10 coils
- Spring length – measured when not under tension (do not include spring cones)
Action Industries Torsion Springs Guide
The guide includes visual diagrams, measurement examples, and wire size reference charts to help reduce callbacks and ensure proper door balance on every install.
Filter Quickly. Order with Confidence.
The torsion spring category page includes powerful filtering options, so you can find what you need without scrolling through endless part numbers.
You can filter by: Wire size, Inner diameter, Length, and Wind
Whether you’re replacing a single spring or stocking up for multiple jobs, the filtering tool helps you narrow down options fast — saving time in the shop and on the jobsite.
How to Read Torsion Spring Product Titles & SKUs
Action’s torsion springs are labeled using a consistent naming structure, making it easy to confirm specifications quickly — whether you’re browsing online or double-checking an order.
Product titles and SKUs follow the same order:
- Inside Diameter (ID) – listed first
- Wire Size – shown as a decimal (example: .283)
- Spring Length – measured in inches
- Wind Direction – LW (left-wound) or RW (right-wound)
Example:
2" ID, .283 Wire, 42" LW Torsion Spring
SKU: 2-283-42L
This tells you the spring has:
- A 2" inside diameter
- .283 wire size
- 42" length
- Left-hand wind
Cones Installed vs. No Cones (NC)
Action offers garage door torsion springs with cones installed as well as no cones options.
- Springs marked “NC” or “No Cones” do not include cones
- NC options are ideal for customers who already have reusable cones or require custom configurations
Always reference the product title and SKU to confirm whether cones are included before ordering.
Example:
2" ID, .283 Wire, 120" LW Torsion Spring – No Cones
SKU: 2-283-120L-NC
