Clock springs efficiently store or generate rotational energy. Ideal for applications such as airbags, revolving doors and watches, they can be tailored for long-term performance.
Clock springs are versatile spring mechanisms that store or generate rotational energy. These springs, mostly made of stainless spring steel (stainless steel), are used in various systems such as airbags, revolving doors, watches and wind-up toys.
There are roughly two main types:
Clock springs can be fully customized. For a longer life and optimal effect, they often undergo post-treatment, such as applying lubricant.
From precision technology to safety systems
In safety systems such as airbags, clock springs ensure fast and controlled movement when activated. In revolving doors and roll-up systems, they provide the required rotational forces for smooth, automatic movements. Clock springs are also essential for the storage and controlled release of energy in medical devices and mechanical watches.
De Spiraal supplies clock springs that are custom-designed and produced, tailored to the desired strength, lifespan and application. Our bell springs are low-maintenance, compact and reliable
Yes, we design clock springs entirely customer-specific, based on the desired torque, rotation angle, lifespan and installation space. Wrapping both left and right.
The rotation angle varies by design. Our clock springs can provide various rotations, depending on spring thickness, material and required force.
The average delivery time is 2 to 4 weeks, depending on complexity and batch size. Prototyping and small series are also possible.
We produce clock springs made of spring steel or stainless steel (stainless steel 301 or 316), depending on the required wear resistance, corrosion resistance and application.
A clock spring is a coiled spring that provides torsional force when unwinding or unwinding. Clock springs are used for resetting mechanisms, such as retractors, measuring tapes, tools, and watches.
