Compression Spring Finder
Shopping for springs on a mobile device?
Find and buy stock compression springs in two simple steps using Spring Finder. This easy to use search engine makes it easy to find and buy the stock spring you need.
The following simple steps will get you started:
- Enter Your Inputs
- Select Your Spring(s)
Step 1.) Enter Your Compression Spring’s Dimensions
If you are interested in buying a stock compression spring, you must know what you require your spring to do and where it will have to fit. Spring Finder is divided into a basic search and an advanced search. You can choose to search in English (inches and pounds) or Metric (millimeters and Newtons) units of measurement. The fields provided in the finder each correspond to a particular spring specification.
In the basic search, you can enter:
- outer diameter
- free length
- spring rate
Each dimension has two input boxes so you can select a range. These are the limitations you want to set so that the search can provide results within those tolerances.
For the advanced search, you must select “Search More Fields”. Here you can enter:
- load
- deflection
- total coils
- solid height
- inner diameter
- wire diameter
- material type
Once you’ve entered your spring’s specifications, click “Search”.
Step 2.) Select Your Springs
After you have clicked “Search” on the Spring Finder, you will be directed to a page of results. The number of results you will get depends on the dimensions and ranges you entered. You can choose to view from fourteen to seventy results in one page and you can choose whether to view them in a table/list or side by side as products in grid format. Besides choosing the quantity of results you want to view, you can also organize them based on the specification of your choosing.
The following are the specifications you can select to organize your search:
- Product Name
- Price

After sorting the products in the order of your choosing, you can start looking through the list to decide which spring will work best. You can find the spring based on the maximum load or the maximum deflection. When you find the spring that meets your load and travel requirements, you can then check whether the spring rate meets your working loads. Furthermore, you can check pricing at different quantities by clicking on the Quick View icon.
If you still need help deciding select your springs and “Add to Compare” by clicking on the icon of two circles joined together on each product. This is to be able to compare them side by side in a more efficient manner. To enter the Compare Products page, find the link at the top of the page. Then, just quickly add them to your cart to complete your order. If you need further assistance finding your springs, you may contact our team of experts to help you out.
