If these are just flat pieces of spring steel, you can probably get the material from McMaster-Carr. I replaced such a spring (simply three lengths of spring steel) with three pieces of this (I had to cut them to length): 9074K194 Spring Tempered 1074/1075 Spring Steel, .125" Thick, 3/4" Wide, 4' Long |
