Carlson MTT-1 Torsion Spring Tester
 
     
      SOLD
     
  This is a Carlson model MTT-1 Electronic Tester for torsion springs. It powers up, and as far as I know it does what it is intended to do. You can test all kinds of torsion springs with this. The chuck holds a user-supplied arbor to fit the inside of the spring, or if necessary you can fabricate special holding devices to suit special needs. The "tailstock" carries a degree ring so you can test spring force against angular deflection.
