Compression springs are the most common type of helical spring. When compressed from its free length the spring applies a resistive force. This increases as the standard compression with constant diam...
Tension springs, sometimes known as extension springs, are coil springs, normally tightly-wound, that are loaded in extension And have many different types of ends known as hooks, eyes or swivel loops...
Springs which work in twisting motion are known as Torsion Springs applying a resistance in the twist (a torque). Generally, torsion springs are used when the spring tightens. Problems can occur if th...
