Tension Springs

Tension springs are produced on modern CNC machines with 100% control, automatic adjustment of spring characteristics and elimination of unsuitable springs.

Tension springs are mostly produced in batches ranging from one piece to small-scale production. Springs with extended loops can also be produced on a large scale.

We mostly produce springs based on customer drawings, but we can also advise you with development of new springs and help you come up with the best solution.

At the customer’s request we can equip each shipment with a measurement sheet containing the required data (F1, F2, cp, cpk…)

Wire diameter: from 0.35 to 3.5 mm

Loop shapes: German, English or in line with customer requirements

Materials: patented spring wires (EN 10270-1), oil-hardened spring wires (EN 10270-2), stainless spring wires (EN10270-3), zinc-coated spring wires, conducting wires (CuSn) etc.

The list of materials can be seen here.

Additional treatment:shot peening, deburring etc.

Surface treatment: phosphatizing, bluing, zinc-coating, nickel-coating, passivation, powder-coating, KTL painting, application of special anti-corrosion or anti-slip coating etc.
