This recliner chair footrest spring is usually fitted to a recliner chair with a full recline like an aircraft seat (zero wall recliner) or an incliner fitted within a 2 or 3 seat sofa. These are genuine original replacement parts from the overseas manufacturer.
The footrest spring operates (opens) the footrest when the handle or cable release trigger is operated. The spring needs to be strong enough to open the footrest fully but not so strong that it is difficult to close. Additionally, footrest springs need to be strong enough to take continuous opening and closing. Our footrest springs are manufactured from strong 2.0mm diameter spring wire, coiled tightly, chrome plated to prevent rusting and fitted with plastic grips to eliminate wear as well as reduce noise caused by the opening and closing.
Recliner Chair Footrest Springs are also known as a recliner spring; coil spring; spiral spring or power spring.
