Specifications for Compression Springs:
  1. Notice that this form is for English Units only if you would like Metric Units instead please click Here.

  2. Specify only those parameters which are absolutely important for the correct functioning of the spring.

  3. Do not attempt to specify every possible dimension of the spring. This will only increase the cost unnecessarily.

    Depending upon the loading characteristics, some of the dimensions may have to be left open to allow for manufacturing compensation.

  4. Based on our experience, the best possible spring design can be obtained by the following steps.

    A) Fill in the data below and forward it to us.

    B) We will then calculate for you the best possible spring design.

    C) We will recommend to you the data and specifications your drawing should contain.
