Contorque® Constant Torque Springs
With innovative machinery, tooling and engineers, we can develop and deliver a spring solution for even the most challenging applications, in high volumes. We have plenty of stock springs available. Connect with our engineers to talk about your project and your needs. Contorque® Springs offer high amounts of torque with small space requirements and can be designed to produce a constant torque or a positive or negative gradient output. These springs are ideal for a wide variety of uses where constant torque / tension springs are needed, including applications requiring smooth extension and retraction, counterbalancing and tensioning.

Materials
Type 301 stainless steel is typically used for most applications. High-carbon steel, Inconel and other materials may be required.
Life Cycle & Force
The life of the constant force spring is predictable. A life cycle is an extension and retraction of either the whole spring or any portion of it. A low estimate of cycle life will lead to early failure. A high estimate, which is the more common error, makes the spring larger and more expensive than necessary. The force of the spring should be equal to the requirement of the application. The normal tolerance for a constant force spring is +/-10%.
End Details
Many standard tools tools are available to create the desired end detail. If you require a custom design, we’re happy to make it for you.
Mounting Methods
There are various mounting methods available based on your application, including single mounting and multiple mounting. Please consult with one of our experts.
