Precision Compression Springs for Industrial and OEM Applications
Compression springs are among the most widely used spring types in engineering and manufacturing, found in everything from fluid power valves and pneumatic actuators to electronic assemblies, safety equipment, medical devices and industrial machinery. As a specialist UK compression spring manufacturer with over 40 years of experience, we have the expertise and production capacity to meet the most demanding specifications across all of these sectors.
Custom Compression Springs Manufactured to Your Specification
We manufacture custom compression springs with wire diameters ranging from 0.1mm to 8.00mm, covering miniature and small compression springs through to heavier-duty industrial designs. Our springs can be produced in a range of geometries, including:
Cylindrical (parallel)
Conical springs
Tapered
Convex (barrel)
Concave (hourglass)
Constant or variable pitch
End configurations include closed and grounded, closed and un-grounded, open and grounded, and open ends, depending on your load and assembly requirements.
Materials and Finishes
All springs are manufactured to your specification, taking into account environmental conditions, fatigue requirements and commercial considerations. Available materials include:
Carbon steel (hard drawn and pre-galv coated)
Alloy steel (chrome vanadium and silicon chrome)
Stainless steel (302, 304, 316 and other grades)
Non-ferrous alloys on request
Springs can be supplied shot peened, bead peened or vibratory deburred, and in a variety of protective or decorative finishes, including zinc plating, delta tone and delta seal. Our ability to provide the right finish for your application is one of the reasons procurement teams return to us time and again to provide the solution that is right for you.
Short Lead Times on Custom Compression Springs
We understand that supply chain disruptions are costly. That is why we hold an extensive stock of raw materials, operate with reduced machine set-up times, and run a highly skilled, dedicated workforce. For custom compression springs, we typically offer a lead time of 10 to 15 working days, and for urgent prototype or small-batch requirements, we can often deliver considerably faster.
We keep over 250,000 springs in stock. If you require a standard size, same-day dispatch is available for orders placed before 12:00 noon.
Over 90% of our customers rate our service as excellent, and 100% would recommend us as a supplier.
