Ashbys ES Trigger Valve Return Spring
The Ashbys ES Trigger Valve Return Spring fits inside the Ashbys ES Trigger Valve Complete and pushes the plunger/stem back into position. It is available separately for servicing an existing valve when the original spring has broken, weakened or become permanently compressed.
For professional carpet and upholstery cleaners maintaining older tools, replacing a worn spring is an option when the rest of the valve is still in good condition. Inspect the assembly first to check which components need attention.
