Conical Compression Springs
Stock sizes in stainless steel
SPEC conical springs are cone shaped compression springs designed to provide
a near constant spring rate and a solid height lower than a normal spring. Each
spring features a variable pitch to achieve the constant spring rate and coils
which nest during deflection to provide a solid height approximately equal to
two wire diameters.
All springs are manufacturer from stainless steel for use in a multitude of
environments.
Material
- Stainless Steel Type 302 per ASTM A313 or AMS 5688 spring temper.
(Chemical and physical only.)
- Stainless steel springs are not recommended for applications where the
temperature exceeds 260 deg. C (500 deg. F).
- No charge for certificate of conformance when requested. Certificate of
chemical analysis available, at additional charge.
Finish
- Standard finish is that of the normal wire.

Ends
Spring Rate
- The spring rate is linear due to the variable pitch.
Coils
- Springs are designed to permit active coils to nest within each other.
This provides a solid height of approximately two wire diameters.
Solid Height
- Due to coil nesting, the solid height is approximately equal to two wire
diameters.
