Product Description

Extension springs, also called tension springs, are helical mechanical springs designed to operate under tensile load. They are engineered to absorb and store energy when subjected to a pulling force and release that energy as the spring returns to its original length after the load is removed.

These springs typically feature hooks, loops, or other end configurations that allow them to be securely attached to mating components. When force is applied, the coils separate slightly, generating a restoring force that attempts to bring the spring back to its initial state. This property makes extension springs ideal for applications requiring controlled tension and return motion.

Our extension springs are manufactured from high-performance materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, and music wire. These materials offer excellent tensile strength, elasticity, and fatigue resistance, enabling reliable performance in both dynamic and static load conditions.

Precision spring forming equipment ensures consistent coil geometry, accurate spring rate, and stable load characteristics. Various end styles—including machine hooks, crossover hooks, side loops, and double loops—can be produced to meet specific installation and load requirements. Custom spring dimensions, wire diameters, and surface finishes are also available according to customer drawings or technical specifications.

Extension springs are widely used in mechanical assemblies where tension and return force are required, including automotive systems, industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, garage door mechanisms, fitness equipment, and household appliances.
