What are steel springs?
Steel springs are mechanical components that store and release energy through resilient deformation. They are produced from high-quality spring steel or stainless steel and can be used in tension springs, torsion springs whether wireform applications. The choice of materials depends on the desired load capacity, spring characteristics and environmental factors such as moisture, heat or chemical stress. At De Spiraal, we process various types of spring steel, from hardened steel to stainless steel, into precisely wound or shaped springs.
Applications of steel and stainless steel springs
Steel and stainless steel springs are widely used in sectors where resilience, wear resistance and dimensional stability are essential. Thanks to their versatility and strong material properties, they form the core of many mechanical systems.
- Mechanical engineering: In machines and production lines, steel springs are used to absorb forces, return components to their resting position, and dampen vibrations. They contribute to the smooth operation of moving parts such as guides, shafts, valves, and grippers.
- Medical: Stainless steel springs are widely used in medical equipment such as dosing systems, surgical instruments, and analytical machines. Their corrosion resistance, hygienic properties, and high precision make them ideal for this sensitive and demanding sector.
- Lighting technology: In luminaires, lens systems, and electronic components, small metal springs are used for positioning, contact pressure, and mechanical spring action. In these applications, reliable and compact spring performance is crucial within limited installation spaces.
- Defence & Aerospace: This sector requires springs that perform reliably under heavy loads, temperature fluctuations, and vibrations. Steel and stainless steel springs are used in clamping systems, locking mechanisms, and sensors, where flawless operation is critical.

Benefits of our steel and stainless steel springs
De Spiraal provides springs that not only do what they need to do, but keep doing so, even under tough conditions or prolonged stress. Our quality is the result of precision, experience and dedication.
- Wide range of materials: From standard spring steel to high-grade stainless steels such as 302, 316, and Inconel. Each material offers specific advantages in terms of strength, corrosion resistance, and temperature resistance.
- Fully custom-made solutions: We manufacture everything from unique prototypes to tens of thousands of units. Each design is specifically tailored to your application, including hook configurations, wire diameters, and tolerances.
- Corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant: Our stainless steel springs in particular are suitable for humid, chemical, or hygienic environments. They retain their performance without corrosion or deformation, even after years of use.
- Consistent performance under dynamic loads: Thanks to precise manufacturing and, where required, thermal post-treatment, our springs continue to operate reliably, even under repeated or shock loads.
- Fast delivery and flexible production capacity: Through efficient workflows and an extensive stock of spring steel, we can respond quickly and maintain short lead times without compromising on quality or customisation.
