Husqvarna Brake Torsion Spring OEM #532198410

When your mower blades won’t stop spinning promptly after disengagement, or drag against the brake pad even at rest, a worn or broken torsion brake spring is the most likely culprit. The Genuine OEM Husqvarna Brake Torsion Spring #532198410 is the factory-correct replacement that restores proper blade-braking function to your riding lawn mower or garden tractor, keeping the mower deck operating safely and as designed.

The torsion spring is utilized to prevent the brake from rubbing; it wraps around the shaft with its two ears engaging the lever to hold the brake arm in proper position. This spring applies the precise rotational tension needed to keep the mandrel brake arm correctly loaded — pressing the brake pad firmly against the spindle pulley when the blades are disengaged to bring them to a quick, safe stop, and releasing cleanly when the blades are engaged. Over time, the spring may lose its tension or break, eventually requiring replacement. A fatigued spring can cause blades that don’t stop quickly enough, unsafe continued coasting after disengagement, or brake pad drag that prematurely wears both the pad and the spindle pulley.

This authentic manufacturer-supplied part is specially made for use on riding lawn mowers and garden tractors, and is an identical replacement for a missing or faulty spring torsion brake originally installed on a new unit. It is made of durable metal and sold individually, weighing just 0.05 lbs.

Part #532198410 fits specific Husqvarna models and also fits equipment from AYP, Craftsman, Jonsered, McCulloch, Poulan, Poulan Pro, RedMax, and Weed Eater that require this part. It also replaces legacy part number 198410. This spring torsion brake fits over 724 machines, making it one of the most widely applicable mower deck components in the Husqvarna parts family.
