What’s Happening at Ace Wire Spring & Form Co., Inc.

Effects of Cold Temperatures on Wire Springs

Springs are designed to withstand various environmental conditions. However, extreme cold temperatures can impact their performance and longevity.

When exposed to cold temperatures, springs tend to become stiffer & lose some of their flexibility. The cold can also reduce the load-bearing capacity of springs & increase spring  fatigue & wear. Springs in the cold may also become susceptible to brittle fractures.  This is why proper spring design along with careful material selection can minimize the risk of all of the issues mentioned above.  It is important to account for these potential effects and design springs accordingly.

 

Our Experienced Engineers at Ace Wire Spring & Form Co., can provide valuable insights into optimizing spring design for all temperatures.
