SACHS 997798 Coil Spring

Description

The SACHS Coil Spring is a vital component of a vehicle's suspension system, designed to provide cushioning and support by absorbing road impacts. It is commonly used in strut and spring assemblies to maintain ride height and improve handling. This coil spring, with MPN 997798 and manufactured in the Netherlands, offers enhanced durability and consistent performance. Its dimensions are 129 x 129 x 487 mm, featuring a diameter of 14.25 mm, a length of 379 mm, and an outer diameter of 111 mm. Parameter AA further defines its specific characteristics.

Key Features & Benefits

These are pretty straightforward. They basically compress and rebound – they push back after being squeezed. That’s how they absorb bumps and keep your tires in contact with the road. They work with your shocks, but the spring is what actually does most of the initial work of cushioning the ride. Think of them as a key part of your suspension system. They sit right between the wheel hub and the vehicle frame. When you hit a bump, the spring compresses to absorb the impact. That impact energy isn't just stopped, though; the spring then releases that energy, pushing the wheel back down. They support the weight of the vehicle, too, which is pretty vital. They help maintain proper ride height and handling.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If these get worn or broken, you'll notice if you're driving over bumps. The ride will be much harsher, and you’ll feel practically everything in the road. Your vehicle might sit unevenly, and handling will definitely suffer. It can also affect your tire wear, as a compromised spring doesn't let the tire follow the road properly. They really act like a shield between the road and the rest of the car. A failing spring can also put stress on other suspension components, like your shocks and struts, leading to even more repairs down the road.
