When designing helical or compression springs, you’ll confront several challenges and trade-offs, especially when it comes to getting the best possible performance from the wire. You will want to use ...

Custom or standard, Smalley takes great pride in its unparalleled dedication to delivering quality wave spring solutions for a variety of industries. Both wave springs and traditional coil springs ...

Compression springs are the most recognizable spring and are intended to oppose compaction in the direction of the axis. The spring is extended at rest; shortened and stored with energy when a load is ...

Compression springs are used in many applications having linear compressive forces and needing mechanical energy storage, such as pneumatic cylinders and push-button controls. The most conventional ...

Helically wound to oppose resistant forces, extension springs have consistent mechanical energy to return to its no-load, compressed position. The ends of the spring are attached to components ...

For mild street engines, stock valve springs are more than adequate. But if you've screwed in a big bumpstick for strip-banging or banzai runnin', then pay attention. Our plan was simple: Install a ...
