The TO-5190L torsion spring from Century Spring Corp. features a left-hand wound design with an inside diameter of 0.672 inches and an outside diameter of 0.798 inches. It has a leg length of 2.0 inches and a body length of 0.87 inches. The spring is made from music wire and has a wire diameter of 0.063 inches. It is rated for a maximum load of 333 in-lbs and a suggested maximum deflection of 11.5 degrees. The spring is suitable for applications requiring resistance to twisting forces and can be used in various mechanical assemblies. The spring's performance characteristics make it a viable option for engineers looking for reliable torsion springs in their projects.
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
