Spring steel wires and their properties

Which spring steel wire is suitable for which application?

Gutekunst Federn has summarized the main features of spring steel wires for the production of compression springs, extension springs, torsion springs and bent wire parts at https://blog.federnshop.com/federstahldraht. In addition to the standard spring steel EN 10270-1 SH and DH, the dynamically demanding valve spring wire VDSiCr (Oteva 70) and the corrosion-resistant stainless steel grades 1.4310, 1.4401 and 1.4568, the nonmagnetic spring bronze CuSn6 and the copper-beryllium spring steel CuB2 are also described here heat-resistant spring steel grades Nimonic 90, Inconel X-750 and Hastelloy C4. Further detailed properties, such as strength (RM), max. Operating temperature, modulus of elasticity and G-modulus, as well as the density, spec. elec.
