| Heat treatment | Quench and temper, normalising or annealing — to specification |
About this part
What it is and why it is made that way
A spring seat does two jobs: it keeps the spring in place and it takes the spring force. Forging it means the part that carries the load is dense and well-defined, which matters when the spring is working hard. The seat is machined to suit the spring wire diameter and the free height of the spring you are using.
- Seat diameter matched to the spring wire and free height
- Forged load path, then machined to the spring geometry
- Retainer styles supplied with or without circlip grooves
- Batch-matched sets available
Materials
- C45 / 40Cr carbon steel
- 42CrMo alloy steel
- 20CrMnTi / 20CrMnMo gear steel
- Stainless 304 / 17-4PH
- Alloy steel 40CrNiMoA
Production processes
- Open-die forging
- Closed-die forging
- Hot and cold forging
- Heat treatment
- CNC finish machining
Typical applications
- Suspension spring seats
- Valve spring retainers
- Clutch and brake spring seats
- Bearing retainer rings
