The SS2-17 is a long length extension spring made from stainless steel (302) with a total length of 20 inches. It features an outer diameter of 0.125 inches and a wire diameter of 0.017 inches. The spring has an approximate initial tension of 0.3 lbs and a spring rate of 1.4 lbs per inch, indicating that it requires 1.4 pounds of force to extend the spring by one inch. The suggested maximum load for this spring is 1.5 lbs. This product is designed for applications requiring a reliable means of energy absorption and resistance to pulling forces, with the ability to customize length and extension travel as needed.
Century Spring warehouses the largest inventory of high-grade extension springs in the world. Extension springs are designed to absorb and store energy as well as create a resistance to a pulling force. It is initial tension that determines how tightly together an extension spring is coiled. This initial tension can be manipulated to achieve the load requirements of your particular application. All Century extension springs are wound with an initial tension force which offers a small deflection load for secure installation "holding". The initial tension is equal to the minimum force required to separate adjacent coils. Each spring is of the constant diameter type with a variety of hook/loop styles.
Note: If the spring needed for your application cannot be found in our inventory, we can fabricate it for you. Call our Custom Spring department at 800-237-5225 or e-mail us at cust@centuryspring.c
