    Compression Springs

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Compression Springs.
    Squeeze these springs and they’ll push right back to their original length. When compressed, they apply steady pressure to keep components securely in place. Release the pressure and they snap back instantly, just like the tip of a ballpoint pen.
    Spring Steel—Strong and resilient, but best suited for dry environments since moisture will cause these springs to rust.
    Corrosion-Resistant 302 Stainless Steel—Won’t corrode from exposure to moisture and mild chemicals, including ammonia often found in cleaning solutions. These springs are easier to compress than steel, but can’t handle as high a load.
    Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Our most corrosion-resistant stainless steel springs won't degrade when exposed to salt water and harsh chemicals. They're easier to compress than steel, but can’t handle as high a load.

    Squeeze these pins into holes and they expand slightly, creating tension to hold parts in place. They are often used as hinge pins and as fasteners for springs and power transmission components. An alternative to dowel pins, they're lighter in weight with a hollow center and don’t need a precise hole. Also known as roll pins.
    Spring Steel—These pins won't deform from stress and vibration. Although they're stronger than stainless steel, they're best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.
    Corrosion-Resistant 18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these pins resist rusting. They are strong enough to join most components but won't withstand extreme stress and vibration as well as steel.

    The best spring pins for joining parts exposed to vibration and shock. They're often used in power transmission, automation, and other assemblies with constant motion and sudden starts and stops. Because of their spiral shape, they flex to conform to holes that aren’t perfectly round.
    Spring Steel—These pins won't deform from stress and vibration. Although they're stronger than stainless steel, they're best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.
    Corrosion-Resistant 18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these pins resist rusting. They are strong enough to join most components but won't withstand extreme stress and vibration as well as steel.
