The Sykes Pickavant GO950 Manual Valve Spring Compressor Bench is a dedicated cylinder head workstation for compressing valve springs on cars and commercial vehicles. Developed with Govoni, the bench uses two non-scratch, plastic-coated head supports adjustable from 0–30° to accommodate different cylinder head geometries. These supports can be locked in place using dual handles once the desired angle is set. Horizontal head position can be adjusted by relocating pins into alternate mounting holes, while the push rod has extended adjustment range for deep valve chambers. The frame can rotate approximately 30° in either direction and can also be moved forwards and backwards, giving excellent access to complex head designs. A travel limit device ensures the same stroke is applied to each valve, and once the valve spring is compressed, a locking pin can hold the position so the operator can work with both hands free. With a stroke of around 265 mm and a nominal head length capability of 750 mm, GO950 is ideal for intensive cylinder head work.
Additional Information
The two head supports are implemented with non-scratch plastic material and are adjustable from 0 to 30°. There are two handles for locking when the right inclination is set.
It is also possible to regulate the horizontal position of the head moving the pins to the opposite holes up and down. There is a long regulation also for the push rod in case of deep valve chambers. The frame can be rotated 30° on both sides.
Can also be regulated forward and backwards. In case of valves locked hard into the seat, hit the slide hammer on the top with a plastic mallet. The bench is also provided with a travel limit device that guarantees the same stroke for each valve.
When the valve spring is compressed, the operator can block the position using the opposite pin. Consequently you can work on the valves having both hands free.
