By Dave Ellner | Published July 17, 2019

Brass, which is a zinc and copper alloy, is an extraordinary material for spring manufacturing. It has many properties that make it a good choice for many applications. Brass springs are extremely strong yet flexible and capable of storing large amounts of potential and mechanical energy.

Springs in Various Outdoor Things

By Dave Ellner | Published June 29, 2019

Did you know that springs are used in many outdoor things that you use in your daily life?

Springs in Garage Doors

The most vital and used parts of any garage door are the springs. However, the size of the garage door will determine which kind of spring is used. For larger overhead garage doors found in parking garages, torsion springs are usually used so that the force can hold parts in place or store and release the mechanical energy. These kinds of springs wind and unwind every time the garage door opens and closes.

By Dave Ellner | Published June 1, 2019

The warm weather has arrived which means you may be buying or getting out the trampoline for your kids. As many people know, without springs, there can be no trampoline. However, there are several important features to a spring that greatly impact the jumping experience and do more than just provide the bounce. Trampoline springs play a significant role in the safety of the bounce as the length of the spring and diameter of the coil make a spring perform a particular way.
