Metric and imperial springs for pharmaceutical industries

According to the company, many springs from Lee Spring are especially suited to medical and related pharmaceutical applications where reliability and precision are essential, and potentially life-critical factors.

Standard spring designs available ex-stock range from metric and imperial wire designs, including Redux, to Wave spring, Torsion spring and Extension spring formats.

“These springs are beneficial to companies for use in delivery systems, including automated drug control, syringes and intravenous valve controls,” said Lee Spring. “Springs and fasteners are also often used in medical and surgical devices, such as staple guns, catheter valves and anaesthetic infusion; also for wider ranging pharmaceutical manufacturing, such as bottling, fluid/air handling, packaging, equipment manipulation – eg, balancing, cushioning of movement, stroke/return, soft handling of materials.”

Aligned with their ex-stock offering, Lee Spring states that it offers a custom design service employing a wide range of materials, including exotics, to suit very specific application requirements.
