This is meant to be a free compression spring design page to calculate a wire size, rate, lengths, stress,  and temperature limit for Music Wire, Chrome Silicon, Stainless 302 304 and 17-7.
We hope to add inconel(r) 600 soon. This only uses wire sizes in certain ranges. Sizes above .500  in. require special considerations. Call if you have any questions.
* The Max. Temperature is a published limit for the material and does not represent a trouble free application at this temperature. So loss of some force and length can be seen.
We provide No warranty, No guarantee, and cannot suggest serviceability, check with us or your spring manufacture to have a design proofed for your application.  We do not charge for designing.
