The TO-1052 torsion spring from Century Spring Corp. features a body length of 0.62 inches and an outside diameter of 1.79 inches. It is designed to operate with a right-hand wind direction and has a wire diameter of 0.035 inches. The spring is rated for a maximum load of 143 in-lbs and a suggested maximum deflection of 80 degrees. It is constructed from stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. This spring is suitable for applications requiring reliable angular energy storage and release, making it ideal for various mechanical systems. Engineers should consider the specific torque and deflection requirements of their projects when selecting this spring.
Century Spring offers a selection of torsion springs with legs of equal length oriented at varying unloaded angles. Torsion springs can store and release angular energy or statically hold a mechanism in place by deflecting the legs about the body centerline axis. They offer resistance to twist or rotationally applied force. A spring of this type will reduce in body diameter and increase slightly in body length when deflected in the preferred direction of the fabricated wind. Depending on the application, torsion springs can be designed to work in a clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation, thus determining the direction of the wind. Common torsion springs are those used in a clothes pin or a garage door.
Note: If the spring needed for your application cannot be found in our inventory, we can fabricate it for you. Often, there is no cost increase for this service because of low-quantity requirements. Call our Custom Spring department at 800-237-5225 or e-mail us at cust@centuryspring.c
