Brake Spring Tool 240 mm YT-0686 YATO
A workshop tool designed for removing and fitting return springs in drum brake systems. The 240 mm working length allows work in the confined space inside a brake drum.
Features of the brake spring tool
240 mm working length
The dimension provides sufficient leverage when removing tensioned return springs. This length allows unrestricted work in most typical brake drums of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, minimising the risk of the tool slipping.
Ergonomic handle
The handle design allows precise control of the tool and the pressure applied. The shape of the handle reduces hand fatigue during repeated fitting and removal of springs, which matters when servicing several wheels in a single repair session.
Reinforced steel construction
The material provides resistance to deformation under load. Brake springs exert considerable force, so the tool must withstand repeated use without losing the geometry of its working tips.
Universal working tips
The hook profile works with various types of return springs used in drum brakes. The curvature of the tips makes it easier to hook the spring and guide it during fitting without damaging other components of the brake shoe.

Use and maintenance
How to use
Before starting work, check the condition of the working tips — they must not be bent or damaged. When fitting a spring, hook the tool onto one end of the spring, then guide the other end to the mounting point on the shoe or backplate. Work slowly, controlling the spring tension to avoid a sudden rebound. After finishing work, clean the tool of dirt and protect it against corrosion.
Work safety
Brake springs are under high tension. Always wear safety goggles when working with the tool. Make sure the tool is correctly hooked before releasing pressure. Do not use a damaged tool — bent tips can slip and cause injury. Before removing springs, familiarise yourself with the assembly diagram of the vehicle's brake system.
