Your 1/16" compression spring's dimensions and measurements have a lot to do with your standard compression spring's force. For this reason, it is very important that the compression spring measurements are precise. Changing the wire diameter by even 0.001" can make a great difference on how strong your spring will be and how much it will be able to travel; especially with a spring as small as a 1/16" outer diameter compression spring.

 

 

 

 

 

The 1/16" outer diameter standard compression springs provided here offer customers a wide variation of rate, load, and travel capacities. Every spring has it's own amount of force due to the different physical dimensions each one has like wire diameter or total coils. The force chart to the right will explain what adjustments will make your spring stronger or weaker.

 

For more force you must either decrease your compression spring's outer diameter, increase the wire diameter, take some coils out, or make the free length longer so that it'll take the spring more force to travel down to the desired loaded height. For less force, you must increase the outer diameter, decrease the wire diameter, add coils, or make the free length of your spring shorter so that it'll take less force to travel down to the desired loaded height.

 

These stock 1/16 outer diameter compression springs are made out of either Stainless Steel Wire or Music Wire. Music wire may sometimes be plated in a zinc finish. Other plating options like black oxide and gold irridite are available on other standard compression spring sizes.
