Helical Spring
Helical Spring | Spiral Spring
Helical spring, some people refer as spiral springs, is the composition of wounded flat ribbon metal with round cross section, typically in stainless steel and other alloy material.
- The load evenly spreads across each individual band therefore it has a relatively high spring load with smaller deflection range.
- The length, sizes, material can be customized based on application.
- Avaliable material: 301 Stainless Steel, Hastelloy C276, Elgiloy or equivalent, 316 Stainless Steel, Beryllium Copper (BeCu)
Application Range
- Spring energized Seals (spring energizer) : commonly used for medium to high pressure applications under very slow or static condition.
- Recommended for vacuum and cryogenic sealing application.
- Not suitable for wide gland tolerances, eccentricity, or misalignment.
- EMI shielding function
- Electricity conductivity purposes
