New Replacement Outer Spring for Stanley 42x Saw Set
25% Stiffer then factory
Made in the USA
Sale is for 1 replacement spring only NOT the saw set
This spring will only fit the 42x model saw sets

WHATS INCLUDED WITH THE SALE:

• One new outer springs

• A printed set of color easy to follow instructions.

• A printed set of Original Stanly instruction for the use of the 42X

Most Stanley 42X saw sets are sold through the vintage market, the seller has never used, or tested it regardless of the selling price. If your handle has no resistance when squeezed you will benefit from a new outer spring.

Installation of the springs is straight forward, no special tool needed. Installation takes about 15-30 minutes.

After extensive use and customer feedback with this run I decided to only reporduce the outer spring. Its the spring that regulates handle tension and the one that wears out. When I did the second run I increased tension by 25% to help with return rate and resistance. The size and installation remains the same. I've been using this spring for 5 years and in that time sold over 500 of them across the world.

About the Manufacture: Alexander Murphy and John Read established Murphy & Read Spring Manufacturing Co. in 1917 in Philadelphia, PA. Read had been trained as a locksmith in England but was unable to find work in his native country. He immigrated to America as an indentured servant to a butcher. He later met Murphy, also a locksmith, and they started a small service company specializing in locks, keys and springs. In talking with them it's quite possible they produced springs for Stanley.
