Exploring Industrial Springs
A Comprehensive Guide to Stock and Custom Solutions
Industrial springs are an essential component in countless applications, spanning industries from automotive and aerospace to manufacturing and medical devices. These versatile mechanical elements provide force, control motion, and absorb energy, making them indispensable in modern engineering and machinery design. Lee Spring designs and manufactures industrial springs for every industry around the world. We offer more than 25,000 stock springs available from inventory for immediate delivery plus custom springs manufactured to your exact specifications.
The Versatility of Industrial Springs
Industrial springs come in various forms, including compression springs, extension springs, torsion springs, and flat springs. Each type has specific characteristics suited to different mechanical needs:
- Compression Springs: Designed to resist axial compressive forces, these springs are used in valves, all types of industrial equipment, and electronic devices.
- Extension Springs: These springs stretch to absorb and store energy, commonly found in garage door mechanisms and trampolines.
- Torsion Springs: By applying torque or rotational force, torsion springs are critical in applications requiring rotational energy storage, like conveyor system components and many types of industrial machinery.
- Flat Springs: Thin, flat pieces of metal, these springs are often utilized in applications requiring a detent mechanism and can be found in relays, switches, and locking mechanisms.
