Tension Spring

Tension Spring

Tension Springs are mechanical springs designed to absorb and store energy by resisting pulling forces. They are widely used in applications like garage doors, industrial machinery, automotive systems, and household equipment. Made from high-quality steel, these springs offer excellent durability, flexibility, and long-lasting performance.

Product Details

Heavy-Duty & Long-lasting Extension Springs

Extension springs, also known as closed coil helical springs, have both ends attached to different components. When an external force is applied, causing the components to move apart, these springs exert force to return the components to their original position. This characteristic makes them ideal for applications requiring tension or expansion. HSI offers high-quality extension springs designed for durability and longevity.

HSI provides extension springs with various capabilities, including:

Ends: Our extension springs are available with different end types, such as full-loop and machine-made loop configurations. The loops or hooks may feature a crossway center transition of the previous coil before forming the loop or hook.

Tolerances: The tolerance of an extension spring depends on its wire diameter and body diameter. Actual tolerance values are determined by the specifications of the tension helical springs, typically ranging between +/-10% and +/-5%.
