Types of tension springs
Tension springs can be classified according to a variety of factors, including:
- Material: As we have already mentioned, tension springs can be made of different materials, with each material having its own advantages and disadvantages. Steel is the most common material used to make tension springs, because it is relatively cheap and has good strength. Stainless steel is more expensive than steel, but it is more resistant to corrosion. Titanium is light and has excellent strength, but it is very expensive. Plastic is the cheapest material used to make tension springs, but it has the lowest strength.
- Wire diameter: The wire diameter of a spring affects its strength and resistance to deformation. Springs with a larger wire diameter are stronger and more resistant to deformation than springs with a smaller wire diameter.
- Number of turns: The number of turns of a spring affects its hardness and the elastic energy it can store. Springs with more turns are stiffer and can store more elastic energy than springs with fewer turns.
- Spring pitch: The spring pitch is the distance between adjacent turns of the spring. Springs with a larger pitch are easier to compress than springs with a smaller pitch.
Applications of tension springs
Tension springs have a variety of applications in various industries thanks to their ability to absorb energy during stretching, thus providing stability, elasticity and longevity in various operating conditions.
- Industrial application: Our tension springs are used in various industrial sectors, providing stability and reliability in demanding working conditions.
- Automotive industry: With their ability to withstand severe vibration and shock, our tension springs are often used in automotive suspensions and other parts.
- Electronics: The precision and reliability of our tension springs make them an ideal choice for a variety of electronic devices.
- Medical industry: In medical devices, tension springs can have a variety of applications, including drug delivery systems, mechanisms for lifting and lowering medical devices, and other precision applications.
How to choose tension springs
When selecting tension springs for a particular application, it is important to consider the following factors:
- Material: The choice of spring material depends on the conditions in which the spring will be used. If the spring will be exposed to corrosion, it is necessary to choose a spring made of a resistant material, such as stainless steel. If lightness is important, it is necessary to choose a spring made of a light material, such as titanium.
- Wire diameter: The diameter of the spring wire depends on the force it has to withstand. The greater the force, the larger the diameter of the wire must be for the spring.
- Number of turns: The number of turns of the spring depends on the hardness required. The higher the number of turns, the stiffer the spring.
- Spring pitch: The spring pitch depends on the amount of compressibility required
Price of tension springs
The price of tension springs reflects a combination of materials, dimensions, custom design and other factors. When choosing tension springs, it is important to consider the needs of the project and ensure that the price reflects the desired performance and quality.
