Penn Machine 1180877 Click Dog Spring

Product Description

The PENN MACHINE 1180877 is a click dog spring designed to maintain proper pawl engagement within ratcheting or locking mechanisms. This small but critical component provides the spring tension required to hold a click dog or pawl firmly in position, ensuring consistent directional control and preventing back-play in the mechanism it serves. It is typically installed by equipment technicians or maintenance professionals working on mechanical assemblies that rely on precise pawl actuation.

The 1180877 click dog spring is suited for use in mechanical systems where ratchet-style locking or click engagement is required. It serves as a direct OEM-style replacement part, restoring original function when the existing spring loses tension, fractures, or becomes deformed through repeated use or fatigue.

Key Features

• Provides spring tension to seat and return the click dog or pawl in ratcheting mechanisms
• OEM replacement part for restoring original engagement function
• Small-profile design suited for compact mechanical assemblies
• Engineered to maintain consistent pawl pressure under repeated cycling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement spring for PENN MACHINE mechanical assemblies using a click dog or pawl engagement system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with ratcheting or pawl-and-click mechanical assemblies. Disengage and de-energize the host equipment completely before disassembling the mechanism. Use appropriate hand tools to remove the worn spring and seat the replacement without over-stressing the surrounding components. Verify proper pawl engagement and free movement before returning the equipment to service.
