Nice Apollo SPAMG093A00 Spring Kit for LBAR Barrier Arm Operators
The Nice Apollo SPAMG093A00 spring kit is used to counterbalance LBAR barrier arms. LBAR systems are generally used with longer commercial barrier arms, so their spring assemblies carry significant load. The spring reduces strain on the drive system and helps the arm move smoothly through its travel. When the spring is weak, broken, or incorrect, the barrier may feel very heavy by hand, move unevenly, stop hard, or place unnecessary load on the motor and gearbox. Because LBAR is a separate barrier family from MBAR, this spring kit must be ordered by exact part number and not substituted with smaller M-BAR spring kits.
Replacement may be needed when the LBAR arm is hard to lift manually, drifts, slams, moves unevenly, has a broken spring, or the operator shows signs of mechanical strain during cycles.

Technician Note
After installing the spring kit, balance the LBAR arm before returning the operator to automatic service. If the arm does not balance correctly, inspect for wrong arm length, added accessories, damaged spring hardware, or bent boom sections.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the operator is LBAR / L-BAR.
- Match the original spring kit to SPAMG093A00.
- Measure or verify the installed arm length and expansion sections.
- Account for lights, rubber protection strips, reflectors, or signage added to the arm.
- Do not substitute M-BAR spring kits for LBAR service.
Professional Advisory
LBAR spring replacement should be handled carefully because the spring and arm carry stored mechanical energy. Secure the barrier arm and use a qualified gate technician if the system is damaged or out of balance.
Important Ordering Warnings
The LBAR spring kit is not interchangeable with M3BAR, M5BAR, or M7BAR spring kits unless a current Nice parts chart specifically says so.
Product Questions & Answers
What operator uses SPAMG093A00?
SPAMG093A00 is commonly listed as the spring kit for Nice Apollo LBAR / L-BAR barrier arm operators.
Is this the same as the M7BAR spring kit?
No. M7BAR commonly uses SPAMG092A00, while LBAR commonly uses SPAMG093A00.
Can I use this on M3BAR or M5BAR?
No. M3BAR and M5BAR commonly use SPAMG091A00, not the LBAR spring kit.
Why does the arm need to be balanced after replacement?
The spring must offset the actual arm weight so the motor and gearbox are not overloaded and the barrier moves safely.
Can added lights or rubber strips affect the spring setting?
Yes. Added arm accessories increase weight and can change the correct spring adjustment position.
