Conical Springs
What is a Conical Compression Spring?
Also known as tapered springs, conical compression springs are a type of helical wire compression spring with each successive coil having a smaller diameter than the previous one. Their appearance ranges from a subtle cone shape to a distinct pyramid-like structure, depending on the difference in the diameters of the coils. Under compression, the gradually decreasing diameter coils can nest within the outer coils sequentially, allowing the spring to compress fully.
Advantages of Conical Compression Springs
Conical compression springs often provide significant advantages over cylindrical compression springs when axial space is limited. As the conical springs' coils nest into each other when compressed, space is maximized, and the compressed state of the spring is highly stable.
