OEM Replacement Gas Spring - Branick TC400 Tire Cart (01-0203 Assembly)
When your Branick TC400 tire cart loses its auto-closing grip, the Branick 01-0203 gas spring assembly restores factory performance in 15-30 minutes. This 6×15 OEM gas spring delivers 80 lb force through a 3.15-inch stroke, automatically clamping tire stacks when you release the foot pedal. Professional tire shops, dealerships, and fleet maintenance facilities use this black nitride-coated assembly to maintain hands-free operation across passenger and light truck tires up to 400 lbs.
Manufactured to exact OEM specifications with M6-1.00 threaded end fittings, this direct drop-in replacement requires only basic hand tools and no hydraulic modifications. Backed by Branick Industries' 100+ years of tire equipment engineering, the corrosion-resistant steel construction handles tire shop environments with exposure to lubricants, oils, and temperature fluctuations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this gas spring fit my Branick TC400 tire cart?
Yes, the Branick 01-0203 is engineered exclusively for TC400 tire carts with exact OEM specifications. The 3.15-inch stroke length, 9.6-inch extended length, and M6-1.00 threaded end fittings provide direct drop-in compatibility with all TC400 models. This gas spring will not fit other Branick cart models or universal tire handling equipment.
How do I know if my TC400 gas spring needs replacement?
Replace your gas spring if you notice slow or weak arm closure, insufficient clamping pressure on tire stacks, the cart arm drifting down when positioned, or difficulty maintaining tire stack position during handling. These symptoms indicate the internal seals have worn and force output has decreased below the 80 lb specification.
What tools do I need to install this gas spring assembly?
Installation requires only basic hand tools for removing and installing M6 fasteners, typically a socket wrench or combination wrench set. No specialized hydraulic tools, compressed air equipment, or system bleeding procedures are needed. Support the tire cart arms during replacement as the gas spring operates under pressure. Most technicians complete installation in 15-30 minutes per unit.
Is this an OEM Branick part or aftermarket replacement?
This is a genuine OEM replacement part manufactured to Branick Industries specifications for the TC400 tire cart. The part number 01-0203 matches original equipment specifications with factory-engineered dimensions, force ratings, and M6-1.00 thread fittings. It provides direct drop-in compatibility without modifications or adapters required for fitment.
