Conical Compression Springs

Conical compression springs are cone shaped springs designed to provide a near constant spring rate and a solid height lower than a normal spring.

Conical compression springs.

Each spring features a variable pitch to achieve the constant spring rate and coils which nest during deflection to provide a solid height approximately equal to two wire diameters. Stock up on compression and die springs from grainger in the types and sizes you need. Conical compression springs are often specified where the large end is meant to work in a bore and the small end is meant to work over a rod. They offer the advantage of a reduced solid height compared to straight compression springs especially when capable of telescoping.

Selection includes standard tapered and constant rate tapered springs. Known for their shape tapered springs are more laterally stable and less liable to buckle than regular compression springs. A die spring is commonly used in clutches brakes and other heavy machinery applications. Corrosion resistant belleville disc springs.

Stock conical tapered springs definition a cone shaped compression spring that has a tapered body with a large outer diameter at the base and a small outer diameter a the top. Use these steel springs in noncorrosive environments. Install these springs in tight spots. When pushed together the coils nest within each other.
