Stainless steel springs are essential elastic components widely used in chemical machinery, electronics, medical, food, and many other industries where high corrosion resistance, temperature resistance, and non-magnetic properties are required. These springs store mechanical or kinetic energy as elastic potential energy during loading and return to their original state when unloaded, converting the energy back for consistent performance.
Material Options
- 304 Stainless Steel: Commonly used, density 7.93 g/cm³, also known as 18/8 stainless steel. High temperature resistance up to 800°C, excellent toughness and processing performance; widely used in industrial, furniture, and medical fields.
- 304L Stainless Steel: Ultra-low carbon stainless steel, ideal for equipment and machine parts requiring good corrosion resistance and formability.
- 316 Stainless Steel: Austenitic stainless steel with added Mo for enhanced corrosion and high temperature strength (up to 1200-1300°C); suitable for harsh conditions.
- 631 Stainless Steel (0Cr17Ni7Al): Semi-austenitic precipitation hardening stainless steel, can be strengthened via heat and aging treatments; used for applications requiring adjustable mechanical properties.

Customization Information
Because stainless steel springs are not standard parts, but customized components, customers need to provide basic specifications for inquiries:
- Spring type
- Material
- Wire diameter
- Spring outer diameter
- Free length
- Number of coils
- Force requirements
- Hardness
- Fatigue life
- Other application-specific requirements
