Conical springs are a type of compression spring with a tapered shape, where the diameter gradually decreases from one end to the other. This design allows the spring to compress in a more controlled manner and, in many cases, nest within itself when fully compressed. Conical springs are typically made from high-strength materials such as spring steel or stainless steel, giving them good durability, fatigue resistance, and reliable performance under varying loads.
Conical springs are commonly used in applications where space is limited, stability is important, and variable spring rates are required. Their shape helps reduce buckling and provides better alignment during compression compared to cylindrical springs. These springs are widely used in automotive components, valves, electrical contacts, clutches, and precision mechanical devices.
Features:
- Tapered (conical) shape
- Variable spring rate
- Better stability under compression
- Reduced risk of buckling
- Can compress to a smaller solid height
Advantages:
- Requires less space when fully compressed
- Improved load distribution
- Higher stability compared to cylindrical springs
- Longer service life
- Suitable for compact and precision applications
