Facit 1720 Typewriter Escapement Wheel

⚙️ Facit 1720 Typewriter Escapement Wheel

The Facit 1720 Typewriter Escapement Wheel is one of the most important carriage mechanism components used in original Facit 1720 manual typewriters. This wheel works together with the escapement system to control carriage movement and maintain proper character spacing during typing operations.

Every time a typist presses a key, the escapement mechanism temporarily releases the escapement wheel, allowing the carriage to advance one position before being stopped by the rigid dog. The same wheel is also involved when the back spacer is operated, allowing controlled backward movement of the carriage. Additionally, manual carriage movement relies on the smooth operation of the escapement wheel and its related components.

Over years of usage, escapement wheels may become worn, damaged, bent, chipped, or affected by improper repairs. A faulty escapement wheel can contribute to spacing issues, irregular carriage travel, skipping, locking, or inconsistent typing performance. Replacement is commonly required during typewriter repair, restoration, rebuilding, and servicing projects.

Suitable for collectors, restorers, technicians, institutions, and daily users, this component helps maintain original carriage functionality and reliable machine operation. It remains an essential part of the Facit 1720 escapement system and overall typing mechanism.
