Where... Quality Springs to Life!
CONICAL SPRING
Compression Springs are designed to operate with a compressive load in “Push Mode”.
Compression Spring also has variable pitch between coils which are used to reduce solid height,
buckling and surging to produce nonlinear load deflection characteristics. Compression springs
offer resistance to linear compressing forces and are in fact one of the most efficient energy storage
devices available.
How to Design a Conical Spring
+ The normal square ness tolerance for ground ends is 2-3 degrees.
+ Use conical compression springs when a short, solid height is needed
to reduce buckling and surging.
+ Leave the wind direction optional for compression springs. Use right
hand wound when the compression spring is being threaded on a
bolt, one right and one left when two springs are being used inside the
other to avoid meshing coils.
+ Specify a force with a tolerance (+/- 10 percent) at an exact
compressed height rather than a definite deflection. Spring rate is the
difference of two forces divided by the amount of deflection between
those forces.
+ Define unusual conditions such as temperature, corrosive
environments, impact force, and fatigue life
+ Fixthe exactwire size and number of coils.
+ Define the spring travel and any solid height requirements.
Material
+ Spring steel is considered a general use steel because of its ability to be durable, yet flexible
with a high degree of strength. It has the unique ability to be formed, shaped, and post heat
treated, which rakes it one of the premium choices for manufacturing springs for autornotive,
auto electrical and electrical applications.
+ Stainless steel is good for corrosion resistant and Inconel is best for springs being used at very
high temperatures.
+ When it comes to springs that are required to be non-magnetic, Stainless Stee!316 can be used.
This material type isn’t 100% non-magnetic though. Stainless steel 316 is only 90% non-
magnetic
Finish
Conical Springs are available in Nickel, Yellow and White Zinc Plating, Black Oxidizing, Lacquering,
Green Passivation and Trivalent Passivation. Stainless Steel Springs are available with Bright Finish.

Key Parameters
Spring rate: This parameter determines spring's resistance, while it is working, Tolerance for this
parameter is(+/-) 15% (indicative),
Manufacturing Process
Conical Springs are manufactured on imported CNC Spring Coiling Machines with SPC on line with
free length sorting device for critical load value.
Testing & Certification Process
Each spring manufactured goes through a series of rigorous tests conducted on in house testing
facilities such as Computerized Load Testing, UTS Testing, Torsion testing, Profile Projector amongst
others. All springs are supplied with ROHS raw material compliant report. We also provide PPAP
documents for automobiles and electrical industries as per requirement.
Common Applications
Electrical contacts such as Push Buttons and Battery Contacts, Automobile Suspension Systems,
Automotive Clutch Systems, Firing Mechanism of a Weapon, Medical Devices, Cell Phones, Large
Stamping Presses and Lawnmowers, Motor Starter, Water Pumps, among other.
