1 min read

New for 2016, Lee Spring expands Torsion Spring Series to now include 7 free angle selections ranging from 90° to 360° and in a choice of winding LH or RH so that forces may be correctly designed to wind up the spring, so permitting design engineers optimal choice for their application.

The extensive range of Lee Spring torsion springs catalogued for ex-stock delivery covers industrial applications from electronic devices such as pop-up covers on CD players, cameras etc., through counter balanced instrumentation covers, to ubiquitous items such as clothes pegs, garage doors or chair controls.

Free position of torsion spring legs is selectable at order stage between 90°, 120°, 180°, 210°, 270°, 300° and 360°, as is direction of winding LH or RH so that forces may be correctly designed to wind up the spring, so permitting design engineers optimal choice for their application. Lee Spring torsion springs are designed with tolerances to allow use with a supporting mandrel.

Specialist miniature torsion springs are available with an outside diameter from 2.62mm, through to full sized units of over 50mm. These are covered by huge depth of stock at Lee Spring which ensures rapid one-off order delivery and timely production scheduling, in music wire or 302 stainless steel.

Torsion springs are such a widely recognised solution for control of mechanical devices that custom requirements are routinely met by the design engineering team at Lee Spring – who also supply a variety of kits. Kits of music wire or stainless steel torsion springs enable design engineers to evaluate prototype requirements and for maintenance specialists to deal with urgent repair situations.
