Torsion Springs are defined as springs whose ends are rotated in angular deflection offering resistance to externally applied torque. (Information from Spring Manufacturers Institute, Inc.) Contrary to the implied name, the wire of a Torsion Spring is not subjected to a torsion stress but rather to a bending stress. The Torsion spring is is usually designed with with close wound coils, a reduction in coil diameter and an increase in body length. Their are many types of Torsion Springs including double body torsion and torsion springs with space between the coils, allowing for a reduction in friction. Our wire capabilities for Torsion springs range from 0.012" to 0.562". |
