Ebay for a spring I dont remembering seeing

[TheFatman]

Does anyone know where this spring is used on a Mills Slot as listed ... if so, I think my memory is starting to get foggy. Or its for a part I have never had to change.

It's for the escalator, I believe you need four of them.

Thanks ... was thinking that they went to the arms in the front of the mech that has the square steel block on it ( yes ... I dont have a clue what most of the parts are actually called, but do know what they do) that drop onto the star wheel when the clock stops the reel. The springs just looked bigger in the pic than that what the actual springs looks like. I thought the escalator springs are not compression springs. but springs that are stretched out and return. Not sure ... thats why I ask here. Dont know of really any compression springs used on a Mills. I am sure I will find out for sure here.
