This is a coil spring designed as a replacement part for KUPA’s KP-series handpieces, particularly the KP-55 and KP-55B, as well as some Medicool models (20K, 35K). It helps maintain internal tension and alignment among components exposed to axial forces inside the tool.
Features
- 
Restores correct preload/tension within the handpiece’s internal assembly, helping reduce internal play or looseness. 
- 
Contributes to consistent alignment of rotor/spindle parts under load, improving stability at high RPMs. 
- 
A worn or fatigued spring can degrade tool performance (more vibration, noise, reduced precision), so replacing it is part of proactive maintenance. 
- 
Cost-effective replacement: replacing a small part like this is far cheaper than dealing with damaged bearings, shafts, or housings. 
Installation Tips
- 
Confirm the existing spring matches the dimensions above (especially length and diameter). 
- 
Ensure that you're replacing the correct spring in the correct location — there may be multiple springs or versions inside. 
- 
When installing, seat the spring properly (not bent, not misaligned) so it exerts uniform pressure as designed.
