FELCO 50/11 Replacement Spring
The FELCO 50/11 is a genuine volute replacement spring specifically engineered for the FELCO 50 and 51 hoof clippers and specialized shears. This spring is a critical component that ensures the handles return to the open position quickly and reliably, which is vital for the safety and efficiency of tasks like livestock hoof trimming. Given the demanding environments where these tools are typically used—often involving moisture and debris—the 50/11 is built to maintain its high-tension "memory" and resist binding. Replacing a worn or lost spring with this Swiss-made original restores the tool's ergonomic flow and reduces the physical effort required for repetitive clipping tasks.
Best For Farmers, veterinarians, and livestock managers using the FELCO 50 or 51 who need to ensure their hoof clippers remain responsive and easy to operate during intensive animal care.
Key Features
-
Hoof Clipper Optimization: Specifically calibrated for the FELCO 50 and 51, providing the exact resistance needed to handle the thicker, specialized handles of these models.
-
Industrial-Grade Steel: Manufactured from premium carbon steel, ensuring the spring can withstand the constant high-pressure cycles required for trimming tough hoof material.
-
Rust-Resistant Finish: Features a protective coating designed to guard against corrosion caused by animal waste, moisture, and cleaning chemicals common in agricultural settings.
-
Consistent Action: Maintains a smooth, predictable handle return, which is essential for operator safety when working with live animals where quick, controlled movements are necessary.
-
Simple Installation: Designed for a fast, tool-free swap; the spring fits securely onto the handle lugs, allowing for easy maintenance even while in the field or stable.
