Specifications

Metal car compression springs are open helical springs wound or constructed to resist compression along the wind axis. Helical compression is the most common metal spring configuration. These compression coil springs can work independently, but are usually assembled on a guide rod or installed in a hole. When you put a load on a high load compression spring to shorten it, it pushes the load back and tries to regain its original length. Heavy duty compression springs provide resistance to linear compressive forces and are one of the most efficient energy storage devices.

Metal Compression Spring Applications

Metal compression springs are used in a wide range of applications, from automotive engines and large presses to major appliances and lawn mowers. The most basic installation is anywhere a button is required.
