Mayline - Tension Spring For Mayline Cable

Tension Spring For Mayline Cable

Keeps your parallel straightedge gliding smoothly across the board

Mayline parallel straightedges use a precisely calibrated cable system to maintain accurate tracking across the board surface. This replacement tension spring maintains the exact resistance needed for smooth, controlled movement, not so loose that the straightedge drifts, not so tight that it fights your hand. The spring mounts directly onto Mayline cable systems, restoring factory-spec performance when the original spring loses tension through extended use.

Parallel straightedges depend on balanced tension to track true. When springs weaken, you'll notice the straightedge moving unevenly or requiring excessive force to reposition. This genuine Mayline component returns your board to proper working order, eliminating the frustration of imprecise alignment during technical drawing, architectural drafting, or detailed layout work. The spring integrates seamlessly with existing cable hardware, no modifications or workarounds required.

Keep a spare on hand if you rely on your parallel straightedge for deadline work. Spring replacement takes minutes and costs far less than professional recalibration or new equipment. Maintaining proper cable tension protects both your drawing accuracy and the longevity of the entire parallel system.
