Tension Spring End Design: Choosing the Ideal Option for Your Applicationhttps

When designing a tension spring, there are many factors to consider beyond the visual style of the end. Spring rate, how loads are measured at specific lengths, and the tolerances required for the application all influence how the spring will behave in its final assembly. These characteristics work together to create consistent, reliable performance Alongside these core parameters, choosing the right tension spring end type is an equally important step in achieving high-performance spring behaviour. In most tension spring [...]

Giggleswick School Receive Springtelligence Class & Factory Tour

JB Springs’ managing director, Alex Driver, was recently invited to Giggleswick School to give a presentation on all things springs-related to their junior school. The talks were well-received with lots of questions and interest from the students, such as, “Do you think you could go a whole day without using a spring?” (The answer being, it’s very unlikely.) As a follow up to these talks, the Year 6 group recently came to JB Springs for a tour of the [...]

First part for CGR International and use of the CGR strain laboratory

Since officially becoming part of the CGR International family in January of this year, we have now produced our first ever part for CGR Montrichard – which was more than a bit unusual…! The part is a 16mm wire, variable pitch, conical spring. It was great to be able to support another company within the CGR group and we’re excited for the future opportunities which will become available to us. Another market-leading aspect of the CGR group is their [...]
