Finger Spring Selection & Customization – CATALOG Spring Solutions

Finger springs (also known as cantilever springs, canted coil springs, or ring contact springs) are precision-engineered components developed by CATALOG for high‑current electrical contact applications across industries including medical electronics, aerospace, and new energy. They are widely used in medium‑ and high‑voltage switches, EV charging stations, high‑current connectors, and similar equipment.


We support full customization of wire diameter, inner diameter, spring geometry, and cantilever configuration. Materials include SUS304/316 stainless steel, with optional surface platings such as copper, nickel, silver, or gold to meet specific requirements for current capacity, solderability, and contact flatness. Recognized for precision design and reliable performance, our finger springs are a trusted choice for demanding electrical connectivity applications.

Pain Point Analysis and Solutions for Finger Springs
Challenge Response Outcome
Long and costly new-product development cycles Use in-house “Huaxia Intelligent Manufacturing Design Platform” to simulate multiple design options; match theoretical vs. actual performance >99% Development time and cost significantly reduced; enables faster project turnaround
Unstable holding force and post-weld breakage risk Optimize material/process; control holding force within 10N ±1N; achieve weld tensile strength of 2kg ±20g; CPK >1.35 Consistent spring performance; no breakage; ensures equipment reliability
Force decay and poor fatigue resistance in high/low temperatures (-40°C to 125°C)

1. Optimize structural design to avoid stress risers

2. Select premium-grade materials

3. Design to high-cycle life standards (80% active turns, 0.5–1N/turn contact pressure)

Withstands 100,000 mating cycles without force loss or deformation; supports 5–10-year product warranties
Difficulty matching spring parameters to application needs Provide expert selection guidance based on force, contact turns, life, etc.; recommend high-conductivity Cu-alloy + Ni-under-plate silver plating; optimize cantilever angle to reduce deformation force Accurate spring specification; suitable for diverse applications (HV/MV switches, charging piles, etc.); meets key needs for current-carrying capacity and lifecycle
