TSMC Spiral Torsion Springs also known as clock springs, flat spiral spring or spiral torsion springs, they are typically manufactured from high carbon steel or stainless steel that wound in the flat state, and are characterized by the condition that their coils do not contact during operation, the inner end of these springs are fixed and the other end attached to the other components that is rotating the spring torque. This design offers reduced force, also reduce friction to zero (coil friction free) when installed correctly.
Spiral Torsion Springs are the most commonly used type of flat spring and are sometimes used in place of the traditional torsion spring as they rotate in circular movements, the torque deliver per revolution is linear for the first 360 degree, at greater angular rotation, the coils begin to close on the arbor and the torque per turn increases rapidly also per revolution on nonlinear when closer to the axis, thus these type of springs are ideally suited for applications requiring less than 360° of angular rotation.
Our custom designed Spiral Torsion Springs are available in a variety styles, sizes and materials, this makes power springs useful in a wide variety of applications, with this complete selection of styles available, our experienced engineers can help you select a spring design to meet your needs.
