A Bowden retractor separates the spring mechanism from the point where the tool hangs. The retraction cable runs through a flexible outer conduit — the same principle as a bicycle brake cable — so the spring housing can mount wherever space allows while the retraction force is delivered exactly where it’s needed, in any direction. Unlike a standard balancer, a Bowden retractor doesn’t require vertical, top-down mounting: it can be installed remotely from the work point, replace costly pulley arrangements, and even serve moving application points such as sliding rails and articulating arms. This patented TECNA design suits lighter hand, air, and power tools, with load capacities from 4.4 to 31 lbs and strokes up to 98 inches.
