Services
Compression Springs
Precision-engineered compression springs from .0015 to .625-inch wire diameter, available in round, square, rectangular, and special-section wire. Custom designs meet aerospace, automotive, and medical industry standards with tolerances as tight as 0.001 inches. Our ISO 9001-certified production includes grinding and finishing options for optimal performance in valve systems, suspension units, and industrial machinery applications.
Extension Springs
Custom extension springs with specialized end configurations including machine hooks, swivel hooks, and threaded ends. Manufactured from .004 to .625-inch wire with initial tension control for consistent performance in agricultural equipment, fitness machines, and automotive throttle systems. Proprietary quality gauges ensure 100% inspection compliance for critical load-bearing applications.
Torsion Springs
Double torsion springs and standard torsion designs with precision end angles held to 0.5-degree tolerances. Capable of producing 0.0015 to .625-inch wire diameters with torque specifications verified through automated testing. Commonly used in medical devices, industrial machinery, and automotive components requiring exact angular deflection control.
Battery Contacts
High-conductivity battery contacts in beryllium copper, phosphor bronze, and nickel-plated steel. Custom profiles from .002 to .625-inch thickness with surface treatments for corrosion resistance in consumer electronics and industrial power systems. Design optimization available for AA, AAA, and specialty battery configurations requiring consistent 30-150 grams-force contact pressure.
Micro Springs
Sub-precision springs with wire diameters from .0015 to .006 inches, tested with 1-gram force accuracy. Used in medical devices, fiber optics, and aerospace sensors where 0.0002-inch tolerances are required. Production capabilities include micro-torsion, compression, and extension springs with secondary operations like passivation and custom tray packaging.
