The Makita 231687-9 Torsion Spring 17 is a genuine OEM replacement part designed to restore correct internal mechanism action in compatible Makita reciprocating saws, including the BJR181 and BJR182. Manufactured from high-tensile spring steel, this precision-wound component provides consistent torsional force to return or preload internal levers, locks, and actuating mechanisms within the saw. When the original spring becomes fatigued, bent, or broken through heavy use, replacing it with this genuine part restores the correct action and feel that professional contractors depend on. As a genuine Makita spare part, the 231687-9 matches the original OEM specification precisely — ensuring correct fit within the intended housing and maintaining the safety and functional reliability of the tool. Suitable for routine servicing or repair work, it can be fitted during scheduled maintenance using basic hand tools, helping to minimise downtime on site. This is a cost-effective way to extend the working life of your Makita reciprocating saw rather than replacing the whole tool. It is particularly relevant when worn or damaged springs cause sluggish return action, inconsistent blade operation, or loss of positive engagement in the saw's internal mechanisms.
