I don't know. I don't have any reason to believe i will have problems with it. It took a beer and a half a movie to get the spring set.

If you look at the small loop near the center, I locked it down with a 2-56 screw threaded in the aluminum. It is kind of small for what it does but it pins it next to the bolt and seems stout in place.

I first set the threaded bolt through the pulley to engage the outer loop but it flexed and came around the bolt. I re-bent the big loop but tapped and put in a 4-40 bolt next to the bolt in the pulley which goes in the small hole and holds it in place which works pretty well.

I first released the spring when it was coiled as was packaged but was too loose. I tightened it more (which took me several attempts and a beer). With it more tightly would it behaved and stayed in place.

At that point it is contained and works great. As to what the failure point would be, if the tabs are secured well, and I think they are, I should be good.

I don't want to say it's good with little or no testing. I hate it when people do dumb things then say "it worked for me". It's kind of like playing Russian roulette and saying It worked out ok for me; it's just a dumb thing people say.

However, it seems to be solid.
