Smile Spring

I am looking for a spring i cannot find in Lowes, or on the internet. This spring makes the 13 gallon trash can

lid to swing open.
Its a tension spring, I can email the picture of the spring if someone is willing to help me

out.
if anyone can tell me where can I find this spring ? I bought the trash can at Sam's, and it is no longer

made by the company TRAMONTINA for Sam's. I called Tramontina, and they no longer produce this

particular trash can, nor have any parts for it.


thanks,
Jerry

Please post a picture of the spring you need. Unfortunately, many springs are custom made for their product and might not be available. Hopefully they used something sorta standard or you will be able to get creative and make a standard spring work.

using PD's suggestion find the nearest but slightly larger/stronger spring, then cut it or stretch it to what you need.
