Custom Spring Product Family
Ring-shaped garter and canted coil springs for seals, connectors, retention, electrical contact and EMI-related assemblies where radial or axial contact force is required.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
Custom Axial Canted Coil Springs manufactured to your drawing, dimensions, load or torque, material, working environment and production requirements.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
A continuous ring of canted coils used where a compact circular interface needs repeatable radial or axial spring force, electrical contact, latching or sealing support.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
Circular compression garter springs for outward radial loading, specified by free and installed ring geometry and the required force basis.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
Conductive spring contacts for enclosure seams and interfaces where mechanical compliance must maintain electrical continuity for EMI shielding or grounding.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
Custom Extension Garter Springs manufactured to your drawing, dimensions, load or torque, material, working environment and production requirements.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
A circular extension or compression coil joined end-to-end for applying distributed radial force around seals, shafts, housings or other round interfaces.
Garter & Canted Coil Springs
Custom Radial Canted Coil Springs manufactured to your drawing, dimensions, load or torque, material, working environment and production requirements.
Product Family Overview
Garter and canted coil springs are closed-ring forms rather than conventional straight compression or extension springs. Their performance is defined by ring diameter, groove geometry, radial or axial deflection and the contact force needed around the circumference.
Selection
Sealing, electrical contact and mechanical retention place different demands on the spring and groove.
Extension- or compression-style garter springs are commonly integrated with seals where a continuous radial load is needed.
Canted geometry can provide a relatively controlled force over deflection for connectors, latching, retention or electrical-contact functions.
Electrical applications add conductivity, plating, contact resistance and surface-condition requirements to the mechanical groove design.
Custom Manufacturing Data
These products are normally made to the seal, connector or enclosure drawing. Ring diameter alone is not enough; groove dimensions and working deflection determine the installed force.
Custom RFQ
Provide the mating groove and the force direction so the ring can be reviewed in its installed condition.
Project Support
Use the product pages for specific spring geometry, then continue with application, material, manufacturing or engineering information as needed.
