SPEEDAIRE 5YAP0 Tool Balancer 4-9 lb
The SPEEDAIRE 5YAP0 tool balancer supports tools weighing between 4.00 and 9.00 lb. It uses a spring-clip attachment and provides three suspension points for secure mounting. The fixed-rotation housing is made from die-cast aluminum and includes shock absorption. This unit suits assembly lines and maintenance stations where tools must stay suspended and ready.
Non-locking retraction with 8 ft steel cable
An 8 ft steel cable pays out smoothly and retracts without a locking mechanism. The spring fail mechanism protects the operator if the spring breaks during use. The drum is a standard type and the reel height when retracted is 7 1/2 in. No reel mount is included, so the user supplies the mounting hardware.

This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. The warning is required under Proposition 65 regulations. Buyers who need a balancer without such a warning should select a different model. The restriction list for state sales is currently empty.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the balancer and what step is often missed?
Use the three suspension points and the 3/4 in hanger opening to hang the die-cast aluminium housing from an overhead beam; the step people skip is verifying the structure can hold the tool plus the balancer before clipping the spring clip on.
What part will need replacement first with daily use?
The steel cable and internal spring are the wear items; the spring-fail mechanism is designed to catch a break, so plan to inspect the cable for fraying and replace it when wear appears.
What limit appears first during continuous operation?
The non-locking, fixed-rotation design means the 8 ft steel cable reaches full extension before any other constraint, so the operator must stay within that travel distance.
