Types of Compression Springs

At C & J Springs, we design Compression springs in various styles to meet specific functional and structural needs. Below are the main types:

Straight Coil Compression Springs

Straight Coil Compression Springs

  • Feature a uniform coil diameter throughout the length.
  • Ideal for general-purpose applications like automotive suspension, electronics, and machinery.
Conical Compression Springs

Conical Compression Springs

  • Tapered design with decreasing coil diameter, allowing compression into a smaller space.
  • Commonly used in compact systems like valves, seals, and battery compartments.
Barrel Compression Springs

Barrel Compression Springs

  • Wider in the middle and narrower at the ends, offering improved stability and resistance to buckling.
  • Frequently found in precision instruments and load-balanced applications.
Hourglass Compression Springs

Hourglass Compression Springs

  • Narrower in the center and wider at the ends, providing similar benefits to barrel springs.
  • Preferred in systems requiring enhanced lateral stability.
Variable Pitch Compression Springs

Variable Pitch Compression Springs

  • Coils with varying spacing to deliver progressive resistance as they compress.
  • Used in applications like dampers and suspension systems for controlled force.
Banana Compression Springs

Banana Compression Springs

  • Unique curved or arched design resembling the shape of a banana.
  • Used in specialized applications requiring directional force or custom load distribution, such as in robotics and certain industrial machinery.

End Configurations of Compression Springs

Closed End Compression Springs

Closed End

  • The end coil is closed and touches the adjacent coil, offering stability and even load distribution.
  • Commonly used where precise seating is required.
Open End Compression Springs

Open End

  • The end coil remains open, making the spring easier to manufacture but less stable.
  • Suitable for less demanding applications or those with loose tolerances.
Ground End Compression Springs

Ground End

  • The end coils are ground flat for a smooth surface, improving load distribution and stability.
  • Used in applications requiring precise alignment and seating.
Double-Closed Ends Compression Springs

Double-Closed Ends

  • Both ends are closed and touch adjacent coils, providing maximum stability and support.
  • Ideal for critical applications like heavy machinery or systems with high vibration.

Why Choose Compression Springs?

Compression springs are great when you need strength and flexibility. Here are some reasons why they are used in many industries:

  • Absorb Shock and Store Energy: Compression springs can absorb shock, store energy, and provide a pushing force, which makes them ideal for suspensions, valve mechanisms, and shock absorbers.

  • Strong and Reliable: Made from tough materials like stainless steel, music wire, and alloy steel, these springs are built to last, even in tough conditions.

  • Versatile: Compression springs come in different shapes and sizes, like cylindrical, conical, and barrel-shaped, so they can be used in many different applications.

Uses For Compression Springs

How Compression Springs Function

A compression spring is a simple mechanical device that absorbs energy and pushes back against forces that squeeze it. When pressure is put on the spring, it gets shorter and stores energy. When the pressure is removed, the spring goes back to its original shape and releases the energy. Compression springs are used in many things, like cars, machines, medical tools, and electronics. They help absorb shocks, keep parts in place, and control movement in different systems.
