Feels solid and well made, and it did the job safely without any issues. Easy to use with clear instructions. Great value for the price and worked exactly as expected. Review: Good price, sturdy, does the job - Never changed a spring before, but having had one spontaneously shear and fall out while car was parked up I decided I would have a go myself putting a new spring in as half the job had been done already :-). Chose these a) becuase they looked sturdy and safer with the double hooks and b) because they looked good value. Found them easy to use, gradually tightening each one by equal number of turns using 21mm socket to ensure equal compression on opposite sides of the spring. These compressors well up to the job had no concerns about their grip on the spring if you tighten them them alternately and gradually each side. Popped the spring in place and slackened off gradually each side again. Job done :-). All thats left to do is tobise them to remove and replace the other side when the rain stops :-) Would recommend. ## Features - Suitable for quickly compressing coil springs - All steel construction - For use on shock absorbers spring sets and bench struts - Used for the controlled compression of coil springs ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008LL2ECW | | Assembled Diameter | 6.5 Centimetres | | Batteries Required? | No | | Batteries included? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 2,027 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 302 in Car Tools & Equipment | | Colour | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (1,740) | | Cutting Diameter | 6.5 Centimetres | | Date First Available | 8 Aug. 2012 | | Finish | Metallic | | Included Components | Hilka 12700055 Coil Spring Compressor | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 2 kg | | Item model number | 12700055 | | Manufacturer | Hilka | | Material | Steel | | Part Number | 12700055 | | Power Source | Manual | | Style | Single | ## Images ![12700055 Coil Spring Compressor, Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EqV-RrYaL.jpg) ![12700055 Coil Spring Compressor, Silver - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/916YA0ISE7L.jpg) ![12700055 Coil Spring Compressor, Silver - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91oRvF4znsL.jpg) ![12700055 Coil Spring Compressor, Silver - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91HCwuZ-22L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this work on non automotive springs, I have a 8inch spring of 2.5 inch diameter, i need to bring down to 5-6 inch?** A: Ok well these have a pair of hooks top and bottom making them more secure than the old single hook variant. However they have a curve to the hooks to suit the circumference of the coil spring. I rather think that 2.5 inch diameter would be too tight a curve for these. **Q: How many clamps are included. 1 or 2?** A: 2, They are study and good quality, in I'm about to get rid of mine, what price have you seen them at?? **Q: Does this fit a litre bike rear monoshock?** A: I wouldn’t have thought so. These are more for car springs. **Q: Previously purchased a sealey coil spring compressor set but they did not sit correctly on my coils. are these suitable for coil diameter of 115mm ?** A: Yes - I would think that these will be fine so long as you have enough clearance to fit both spring compressors either side of the coil. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by A***A on 10 February 2026* Good quality coil spring compressor.
