Description
Available in Both 11-Loop 18.5" and 13-Loop 22" Standard Sizes
Count the loops or measure the old spring before you order. 11-loops equals 18.5″ length (469mm). 13-loops equals the 22″ length (559mm). Your size might differ if the springs are stretched so count the number of rungs, or even contact us for help identifying the right length.
OEM No-Sag Seat Springs for La-Z-Boy Recliners
These 8 gauge serpentine springs are made by Leggett & Platt for La Z Boy original parts. They match the factory spring profile, loop spacing and wire thinkness, so they fit into the existing hook clips with no cutting or bending required. This is great do-it-yourself repair option, easy and cost effective.
Compatible with Rocker, Glideaway and Recline-Away Chairs
Both lengths are found across classic Rocker-Recliner, Glideaway or “Recline-Away” models, and many La Z Boy stationary sofas and loveseats. Common frames that use the 18.5″ springs include popular rocker recliners and chaise recliners, while large wall-hugger and three-seater lounges often use the 22″ size version. If your chair carries the Jason badge, the same two standard length apply.
Restore Sagging Seats and Broken Springs
Typical warning signs are a seat that sags in the centre, sits unevenly, or makes a sharp ping if a wire snaps. Installing a full set of new springs restores the correct seat height and firm support, protects the foam cushion, and makes the recliner feel like new.
DIY Friendly Repair That Saves You Time & Money
Replacing seat springs takes about twenty minutes per seat and only basic hand tools. Follow our step-by-step guide and video tutorial in the How To Tutorial tab. Do the repair yourself, keep quality furniture out of landfill and save the cost of a service call.
