What is a Helical Spring?
Coil springs, also known as helical
springs, are a mechanical device, which is typically used to store
energy and subsequently release it, to absorb shock, or to maintain
a force between contacting surfaces. They are made of an elastic material
formed into the shape of a helix which returns to its natural length
when unloaded. Most coil springs fail due to constant overloading,
excessive up and down movement or just a general breakdown due to
metal fatigue. Springs can also corrode and rust. How do you know
if you have a suspension problem? You’ll probably feel it if a spring
fails, your ride will become hard and jarring. Failed shocks may result
in excessive “bouncing” or up and down movement of your car’s front
or back end. It may also become harder to steer, and could feel like
your vehicle is pulling to the left or right.
