Single Torsion Spring
Total Coils: The number of coils in the spring when it is under no load.
Active Coils: The number of coils in the spring that are compressed or extended when it is under load.
Wire Diameter: The diameter of the wire used to make the spring, which is typically specified in inches or millimeters.
Radius: The bend radius at which a load is applied to a leg. The radius is usually assumed to be equal to ½ the leg length.
Outer Diameter: The outer diameter of the spring, which is the diameter of the circle that the wire makes when it is wound into a spiral.
Inner diameter: The inner diameter of the spring, which is the diameter of the circle that the wire makes when the spring is not under any load.
Double Torsion Spring
Angular Deflection: The angle of rotation as measured from the free position to the installed, intermediate or final positions.
Free Angle: The angle between the arms of a torsion spring when the spring is in the unloaded position.
Leg Length: The length of the straight sections at each end of the spring, which are used to attach the spring to other components.
Mandrel: A rod or shaft over which a torsion spring operates.
Maximum Deflection: The maximum amount that the spring can be twisted before it reaches its elastic limit and starts to deform permanently.
Spring Rate: The amount of torque that the spring exerts for a given angle of twist, which is usually measured in units of torque per unit of angle (such as Nm/degree or lb-in/radian).
Torque: A twisting action in torsion springs which produces rotation, equal to the load multiplied by the distance from the load to the axis of the spring body.
Material Type: The type of material used to make the spring, which can affect its strength, durability, and other properties.
