Wire Wound Springs

Typically, spring wire is coiled hot or cold with ends configured within the limits of coil wire, creating an energy storing device. However, it is how accurately that force is delivered, over a time frame, that is the key to successful product placement.  Through excellent product knowledge, ABSSAC can assist you in the procurement of highly optimised wound spring designs, including bespoke end fixing detail. Whether compression, extension, torsion or lateral bending spring rates are required,  the wound wire spring product available from ABSSAC has been reliably used to produce a mechanical advantage in a wide range of industries.

Wire formed springs appeared early in the industrial revolution and the basic concept has not changed much since that time. The basic compression, extension, lateral bending and torsion formats can easily be delivered via the wire wound spring. There have been many enhancements in materials and manufacturing techniques that have forged the wire wound spring into a reliable, industrial tool that exhibits elasticity. We specialise in the supply of wire wound springs in a choice of materials using wire from 0.15mm (.006”)  to 14mm in diameter.
