Product Overview
Extension springs are attached at both ends to other components. When these components move apart, the spring tries to bring them together again. Extension springs absorb and store energy as well as create a resistance to a pulling force. It is initial tension that determines how tightly together an extension spring is coiled. This initial tension can be manipulated to achieve the load requirements of a particular application. Extension Springs are wound to oppose extension. They are often tightly wound in the no-load position and have hooks, eyes, or other interface geometry at the ends to attach to the components they connect. Stainless steel spring wires are economic, general purpose wires that provide high tensile strength coupled with good to superior corrosion resistance and magnetic properties. They are frequently used to provide return force to components that extend in the actuated position. This part is used in the Giraffe™ OmniBed machines for variant purposes.
