Spring Steel Wire
As we are aware that Spring Steel Wires play a pivotal role in the production of tension and compression of coil springs that are subjected to static or low-to-high dynamic stresses and impact loaded springs. Spring can be defined as a component that is capable of storing energy, either temporarily or permanently. Today, springs are fundamental mechanical components found in many mechanical systems. And nowadays Spring Steel Wires are termed as an important engineering element for various industries.
Springs are primarily designed and produced for their function of undergoing large deflections which are within their elastic range. The materials which are selected and used for this are called spring material. Even though these spring materials are not specifically designed alloys in spring making since they have an elastic range that is needed to make springs they are therefore desired. In steels, normally the medium and high carbon content are the most appropriate for spring making.
Spring Steel Wire is known for its ability to be durable and endowed with a high degree of strength
These wide ranges of Spring Steel Wires are primarily used in automotive and industrial suspension applications. Generally, these Spring Steel Wires are low-alloy manganese, medium-carbon steel, or carbon steel with high yield strength. Due to the high yielding capacity, any product manufactured from this material can endure a high amount of continuous compression, twisting without losing its original form. In other words, this permits objects made of these Steel Wires to regain their former shape regardless of deflection.
Besides high yield strength, Spring Steel Wires also feature great tensile strength and fatigue strength and have the capacity to be formed, shaped, and post heat treated. These properties make this Spring Steel Wire appropriate for several industrial applications. The tensile strength is obtained by the final heat treatment. Spring steel Wire is known for its ability to be durable and endowed with a high degree of strength. The significant feature of Spring Steel Wire is its ability to be formed, shaped, and after heat treatment, which makes it one of the premium choices for manufacturing materials.
Features
- Supreme tensile strength
- High flexibility
- Highly durable
Spring Steel Wire is a product with very specific technology. It has a strong structure and a good balance of flexibility. According to different surface treatments, Steel Spring Wire can be classified into Hot-dipped galvanized wire, Electro-galvanized Spring wire, and PVC coated Spring Wire. The main application of the Spring Steel Wire is in the Mechanical spring industry.
Hot Dipped Galvanized Wire
Hot-dipped Galvanized Wire is manufactured by casting and cleaning process and then dipped into the molten zinc. After cooling the wires are then formed into strands. The main advantage of the Hot-dipped Galvanized Wire is it gives corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. Hot-dipped Galvanized Wire is a kind of Spring Steel Wire which offers strong corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. The primary use of Hot-dipped galvanized wire is in making handicrafts, woven wire mesh, forming fencing mesh, packing products, and so on.
Electro Galvanized Spring Wire
These spring wires are produced by electro galvanization, it is a form of zinc electroplating where a thin layer of zinc is bonded electrically and chemically. This zinc electroplating helps to prevent rust and corrosion. The zinc acts as a barrier layer on top of the steel to prevent corrosive substances from reaching the underlying steel or iron. First wires are converted into strands and finally into the finished cable wire.
PVC Coated Spring Wire
PVC coated Steel Spring Wire is a steel wire coated with PVC which offers high corrosion resistance and is known for long service life.
Advantages
- Fatigue Strength
- Corrosion Resistance
- Magnetic Permeability
- Electrical Conductivity
- Cost-effective
- High Accuracy
- Conservation of energy
