Construction Industry

The construction sector demands components that can withstand extreme conditions, constant vibration, and heavy use. We supply springs, pressings, and stampings designed specifically for the rigours of construction projects. Our engineered products ensure that building systems and construction machinery remain reliable and safe even in the most challenging environments.

Construction Springs

Springs play a pivotal role in a wide range of construction applications. Our extensive portfolio includes various spring types, each tailored for specific functions. Compression springs, for example, are extensively used throughout building & infrastructure construction such as:

  • Doors and windows: these springs are incorporated into hinges and window balances to ensure secure closures and effective lifting. 
  • Elevators and escalators: they absorb shock and dampen vibrations, contributing to a smooth, stable ride and enhanced braking performance. 
  • Bridge construction: compression springs are installed in expansion joints to allow for movement due to temperature fluctuations and wind forces, thus maintaining the bridge’s structural integrity. 
  • Building maintenance: employed in HVAC suspension systems and the operating mechanisms for large access panels and doors.

Application in Construction Machinery

Heavy machinery in construction relies on robust spring systems to operate efficiently. Pavers use dedicated spring systems in their screed mechanisms to maintain a consistent level for smooth asphalt application. At the same time, compactors, loaders, and backhoes integrate springs to absorb impact and provide a smoother operational performance. There are also larger applications in:

  • Excavators: Utilise springs within their hydraulic systems to precisely control the movement of booms, arms, and buckets.
  • Cranes: Benefit from our suspension springs, which absorb shocks and vibrations during heavy load handling, ensuring safe operations.​
  • Bulldozers: Specially designed motor springs in the undercarriage and suspension systems mitigate the impact of rough terrain.​

Construction Pressings & Stampings

Beyond springs, our precision-engineered pressings and stampings form the backbone of durable construction assemblies. These components are crafted from high-performance alloys and offer exceptional strength and corrosion resistance – qualities that are essential for withstanding harsh environmental conditions on construction sites.

Our pressings and stampings are used to reinforce machinery frames, support building components, and secure fasteners and mounting systems. They ensure seamless integration within complex assemblies, extending the lifespan of equipment and contributing to overall project stability.
