Extension Springs

Extension springs, also commonly referred to as tension springs, are helical springs designed to operate under axial tensile loads. They are typically manufactured using round wire, though flat wire may be used in space-constrained applications. When unloaded, the coils of an extension spring are generally wound tightly together. This closed position generates a built-in force between the coils, known as initial tension. The magnitude of the initial tension can be adjusted during manufacturing but is ultimately limited by the material properties, mean coil diameter, and wire diameter.

Variants
English loop (full loop), German loop (half loop), swivel hook, side hook, semi-circular hook, reduced & threaded end, drawbar spring.

Application Fields
Extension springs are one of the most widely used spring types across nearly all industrial sectors. CATALOG's extension springs primarily serve six major industries: mechanical automation, packaging and filling, medical devices, electronics and appliances, power transmission, and automotive components.
