Rectangular Spring Wire

In producing springs from rectangular wire the wire cross section distorts and becomes keystoned the wire axial dimension b1 can be estimated from.

Rectangular spring wire.

B 1 b c 0 5 c when axial length is critical keystone shaped wire can be purchased. The space available permits a maximum outside dia d o i d m of 25 5 mm and a rod of 14 mm should pass freely inside the spring in fitment. Find details of companies offering rectangular wire springs at best price. A rectangular spring is a compression spring that is formed in an oval shape as opposed to a cylindrical shape as most compression springs are.

For some applications where the cold winding could produce cracking during forming square rectangular wire springs are formed in the annealed condition and then heat treated. Astm a 231 astm a 401 die springs. Rectangular springs range in wire sizes from 005 in. Listed manufacturers suppliers dealers exporters are offering best deals for rectangular wire springs.

Manufactured to tight tolerances and stringent quality control standards. Even though stress distribution around the rectangular cross section is not as uniform as the round wire section the energy storage capacity is higher because more. Torsion springs are produced from rectangular or round wire it is more typical for a manufacturer to use round wire because of the premium cost of rectangular wire additionally torsion springs are normally heat treated at a low temperature to. Either chrome vanadium astm a 231 or chrome silicon astm a 401.

Materials include 302 304 316 17 7 stainless steel music wire tin zinc galvanized music wire phosphor bronze beryllium copper brass hard drawn mb galvanized hard drawn oil tempered. Alternatively you can also produce lighter and smaller springs with comparable spring loadings as round wire. All parts are made of alloy spring steel. A compression spring is required to meet a load f 1 530 n at l 1 55 mm and f 2 1 060 n at ls 45 mm.

Wire that is too hard cannot be formed and is unusable for producing formed helical springs. Specializing in fine diameter non standard cross section and specialty material wire. Springs made from rectangular wire with the width of the rectangle perpendicular to the spring axis store more energy in a smaller space than equivalent round wire springs. Manufactured from rectangular shaped wire diamond die springs meet stringent quality standards throughout production from start to finish.

The general comments on round wire torsion springs apply to springs with rectangular wire. All parts are painted white with ends dipped for color coding.
