Product Description
What are torsion springs?
Torsion springs are helical springs that deliver torque around a central axis. Their legs connect to adjacent components so the spring can return, balance, clamp, or position a rotating mechanism.
Working Principle
How this spring type works.
Angular movement between the spring legs winds or unwinds the coil. This creates bending stress in the wire and a restoring torque proportional to angular deflection within the designed working range.
