Ingersoll Rand BSDL-20 Medium-Duty Locking Spring Balancer is designed to suspend and balance compatible tools and equipment in assembly, production, maintenance, and other repetitive workstations. It provides a 33–44 lbs load capacity with a 9.85 ft lift, giving operators extended vertical cable travel while reducing the effort required to handle a supported load.
Part of the BSDL Series, the BSDL-20 is a long-cable locking spring balancer with a listed 42.1 lbs balancer weight. Its locking design allows the suspended load to be manually clamped or released, while the series uses an upper rotary suspension with safety hook, precision-guided cable winding, and an anti-friction cable guide. These features make the BSDL-20 suitable when a supported tool needs controlled positioning over a longer vertical working range.
