These Utility Compression Porch Springs by Prime-Line Products are constructed of .227 ga. diameter spring steel and come in a corrosion-resistant, nickel-plated finish. They are commonly used to support hanging porch swings and allow for easy swinging. If installing a porch swing for the first time, a good pair of heavy-duty hooks or eyebolts will be required, depending upon what material they will hang from. These springs replace worn and missing porch swing springs and they are rated with a maximum safe load of 342 pounds each. The wire diameter of these springs have an outside diameter of 1-9/16 in. with a 7-3/4 in. overall length. When replacing porch springs like these, make sure to replace the springs in pairs for increased safety and best operation of the swing. The maximum deflection of these springs measures 2.30 inches.
