High Force Compression Springs

These springs handle higher loads than standard fastener mount compression springs.

High force compression springs.

They have large wire diameters from 1 4 inch to 1 inch in thickness and are required when the spring needs to support a large amount of load in a mechanism. These springs handle higher loads than standard fastener mount compression springs. Spec mechanical compression springs are open coil helical springs in a variety of cross sections and forms for linear applications. To increase the tension or force of your spring you must either increase the wire diameter decrease the outer diameter or increase the length of your high tension spring s body.

The force chart shows what adjustments will increase the force of your high tension spring. High load fastener mount compression springs. Compression springs are the type of open coiled helical springs which are designed to oppose the compression set along the wind axis. Igs gas spring products are developed under the most stringent quality.

A compression spring is an open coiled helical spring made of round wire usually metal that offers resistance to an axial force and keeps two items separated. Learn more about compression springs. For the heaviest loads these springs have more than double the load capacity of high load fastener mount compression springs. Helical compression is the most common metal spring configuration.

Standard compression gas springs also known as gas struts are normally extended self contained force generating devices used in a wide range of industries to provide a compact high force solution to aid the lifting counterbalancing and damping of applications. As compression springs are compressed to a shorter height they provide a force push to return the spring back to its normal height. High quality compression springs available in various specifications. High force miniature gas springs.

They are designed to operate with a compression load causing the spring to get shorter as the load is applied. Therefore decreasing the. Century spring warehouses the largest inventory of high grade straight cylindrically shaped compression springs in the world a compression spring is an open coil helical spring that offers resistance to a compressive force applied axially they are usually coiled at a constant diameter though they can be coiled in other needed forms such as conical concave. Compression springs are open coil helical springs wound or constructed to oppose compression along the axis of wind.

Heavy duty springs are compression extension or torsion springs with a great amount of force. Secure by inserting a fastener through the hole at the base.
