Speedaire 5YAN8 Industrial Tool Balancer 4 to 6 LBS

The Speedaire 5YAN8 Tool Balancer is a retractable overhead spring balancer designed to support tools weighing 4 to 6 pounds, helping keep the tool weight off the operator’s hand while positioning it for use. It features a 5-foot steel cable housed in a die-cast aluminum body, with a fixed-rotation, non-locking mechanism, and a tool attachment via a spring clip; the reel height when retracted is 4-3/8 inches and the maximum load is 6 pounds. This Speedaire unit is commonly used in light- to moderate-duty overhead applications—such as assembly lines, maintenance bays, and workshops—where controlled tool movement and reduced operator fatigue are desired, providing reliable, ready-to-use tool balance for items in the 4–6 lb range.
