Tension springs from RAICO

Properties of tension springs

Tension springs absorb energy when they are pulled apart, which is discharged when the tension is released.

Tension springs are produced with a wire diameter from 0.2 – 4.0 mm. From sample springs and individual springs in a pilot series to serial production with several million units per spring and year, we offer a wide range of different springs in our portfolio.

We are pleased to produce special solutions for our customers. These tension springs are specially adapted to the requirements of our customers.

Special features of RAICO tension springs.

  • We calculate and test the fatigue strength based on requirements (continuous running test).
  • If necessary, we carry out integrated 100% force tests.
  • With the help of laser technology, we monitor eyelet positions, eyelet placements and lengths.
  • We produce tension springs as well as double tension springs.
