Custom Spring Design

We specialise in custom spring design and manufacturing. With decades of experience as custom spring manufacturers, we create bespoke springs that meet your unique requirements. From one-off prototypes to large-scale production, our team brings you high-performance springs engineered to exact standards.

Expert Spring Design

We combine our extensive knowledge of materials, mechanics, and industry standards to produce springs that perform reliably in any application.

Whether you need a one-of-a-kind design or a precise replacement, we engineer our custom springs to exact requirements.

Designing a spring involves careful consideration of:

Material selection – taking into account the mechanics, potential functionality and strengths of each metal.
Mechanical and stress analysis – applying theoretical models, FEM simulations, and in-house software for precise calculations.
Load, fatigue, and transient performance – assessing stress levels, creep, relaxation, high-speed shock loading, and fatigue performances to guarantee reliability.

Our team’s expertise ensures that every spring meets the highest functional standards while optimising cost and efficiency.

Our Design Process

We follow a trusted and tested approach to create springs that perform exactly as required:

Design Consultation – Collaborate with our engineers to define requirements, loads, and dimensions.
Material Selection – Choose from high-grade metals including stainless steel, Hastelloy, and Inconel.
Precision Engineering – We use advanced CAD design and CNC machining tools to create both traditional and complex geometries.
Stress & Fatigue Testing – Our team check creep, relaxation, and fatigue performance to ensure long-term reliability.
Quality Assurance – Every spring undergoes rigorous testing and quality checks to meet exact specifications and industry standards.

Our team of engineers will guide you through decisions on design, material, and additional services to help you achieve the right end product that works with your industry. For highly specialised applications, we combine automated processes with manual expertise to achieve precision and quality where it matters most.

Frequently asked questions

What Materials Can I Order Custom Springs In?

We offer a variety of spring materials for your custom project, including steel (including stainless steel), Hastelloy, Elgiloy, Nimonic, Inconel, Beryllium Copper, and Phosphor Bronze. To learn more about which material is best for your application, please speak to a member of our team.

What Types of Custom Springs Do You Offer?

We supply both stock and bespoke springs in popular variations such as compression springs, tension springs, and torsion springs. Browse our website to discover more about all the spring types we can offer.

How Do I Know If I Need Custom Spring Design?

Custom spring design is typically required when you have unique specifications, dimensions, or load requirements that aren’t met by standard solutions. This may apply to certain environments, such as exposure to corrosion, extreme high or low temperatures, or abnormal pressure. Our team can work with you to determine if a custom design is what you need, or whether we can find you a solution in our catalogue.

What Do I Need to Consider When Ordering Custom Springs?

We recommend coming to us with your specifications (including wire & coil diameter, length, and configuration), performance requirements such as load capacity or fatigue life, and any material or environmental factors. If there is anything we need to know about your custom spring, we will communicate this with you during the process.
