| JM Steel offers a selections of torsion spring with legs of equal length oriented at varying unloaded angles. Torsion spring can store and release angular energy or statically hold a mechanism in place by deflecting the legs about the body centerline axis. They offer resistance to twist or rotationally applied force. A spring of this type will reduce in body diameter and increase slightly in body length when deflected in the preferred direction of the fabricated wind.Depending on the application torsion springs can be designed to work in a clockwise or counter-clockwise rotations thus determining the direction of wind. |
