Linear Springs

Our Linear Springs offer a wide selection of spring loads that react along a straight line as opposed to a conventional helical spring that fits in a circular cavity. This results in a spring which, although found in the axial direction, provides a radial force between mating components. Linear Springs are a continuous wave formed wire length manufactured from spring tempered materials which act as a load bearing device. Since they are produced using the same technology that is applied to the production of our Smalley® Edge Coiled Flat Wire Wave Springs, they have the same load/deflection characteristics and, burr free edge profile.
