90501-12272 – Spring, Compression – Yamaha

The 9050112272 compression spring is a genuine Yamaha OEM spring used in outboard motor bracket and mechanical assemblies. This compression spring provides reliable tension and helps parts return to their correct position during operation. It sits under load between mating surfaces, then pushes back when the load changes. Because it matches Yamaha’s original specifications, it delivers consistent performance and fits in designated Yamaha components without modification.

Springs like this one play an important role in maintaining proper movement and pressure in mechanical linkages. For example, they help restore lever positions, maintain tension in clamping mechanisms, and stabilize assemblies that experience motion or vibration. In many Yamaha outboard designs, such springs help keep components aligned and reduce slack or noise.

Also, this compression spring resists fatigue and wear from repeated cycles, yet it can weaken over time. When a spring loses its tension, assemblies may feel loose, sticky, or slow to respond. Replacing worn springs with the 9050112272 compression spring restores smooth, predictable operation. Furthermore, using the correct OEM spring ensures that your engine’s hardware works as intended by the manufacturer.

Because this is a basic yet essential mechanical part, you will want to inspect it during routine outboard service. If the spring shows signs of flattening or corrosion, install a fresh OEM spring for best results. This small investment can prevent larger issues and helps maintain the resilience of mechanical linkages in your Yamaha outboard.
