![]() ![]() You may also add more coils or produce less torque through less travel by altering the torsion spring’s free position angle. To make your torsion spring lighter, you can manipulate the tightness of its coils by either decreasing the outer diameter or decreasing the wire diameter. Once you’ve taken a partial coil out, your spring will require more torque in order to reach your degrees of travel because it will have to undergo more travel. To alter the free position angle of your torsion spring, you must basically take out part of the last coil in doing so, you’re also making the spring stronger. To make your spring stronger you may manipulate the spring index by making either the outer diameter smaller or the wire diameter larger, taking coils out, or creating more torque through more travel by altering the free position. The force chart lets you know how you can make a torsion spring's rate per degree stronger or lighter. When picking a light torsion spring, it is merely a matter of perspective whether you want a light compression spring in rate or in weight. That is the case of the first torsion spring It is under a lot of stress and it is also very strong but it is a lighter spring in weight since less wire is required to make a full coil. This is because, since it has less coils, it requires less wire to be manufactured and less wire equals less weight. The second spring is a light torsion spring in rate while the last spring is a light compression spring in both rate and weight. This spring will be stronger than the previous spring but having an average index, it is under much less stress than the first spring so it will be able to give you more elasticity and more force. The last spring also has an average spring index but has less coils. The next spring has an average index with an average amount of coils which now makes it a lighter spring. This spring will not be as flexible to travel and it is also very strong. ![]() One of the springs is under a lot of stress since it has a small index and little coils. In the examples to the right you are able to see the difference between spring designs according to the proportion of its physical dimensions. Furthermore, you can check pricing at different quantities by clicking on the Quick View icon. When you find the spring that meets your load and travel requirements, you can then check whether the spring rate meets your working loads. You can find the spring based on the average rate or the most important dimensions to you. Our engineers can help answer your questions and assist you in finding the correct spring for your application.Īfter sorting the products in the order of your choosing, you can start looking through the list to decide which spring will work best. If you need further assistance finding your springs, you may contact our team of experts to help you out. Then, just quickly add them to your cart to complete your order. To enter the Compare Products page, find the link at the top of the page. This is to be able to compare them side by side in a more efficient manner. If you still need help deciding select your springs and “ Add to Compare” by clicking on the icon of two circles joined together on each product. You can find the spring based on the maximum load or the maximum deflection. After sorting the products in the order of your choosing, you can start looking through the list to decide which spring will work best. ![]()
