Torsion springs formed from
square-section wire
A new range of torsion springs formed from square-section wire meet demands for compact springs that can handle high loads.
To meet the demand for compact springs that can handle high loads, specialist manufacturer William Hughes has introduced a range of torsion springs formed from square-section wire The new springs offer higher performance than similar springs made from round-section material and are suitable for a wide range of engineering and automotive applications

The specially sourced, high-quality spring steel is available in a range of sizes up to 7mm square and can be formed into virtually any shape to meet the customer's specification and drawings.
Alternatively, the application engineers at William Hughes will use their knowledge and experience to engineer a spring to meet the physical and mechanical requirements of the application.
In either case, sample springs for evaluation can be quickly made available to meet the production demands of the project.
William Hughes has been manufacturing springs for over 200 years and has recently invested over GBP 1 million in the latest computer-controlled production machinery to make its high capacity production plant one of the most sophisticated in the world.
The new, square-section torsion springs are just part of a huge range of wire products that include compression springs, tension springs, wire forms, PCB test points and spring wire.
Stringent quality checks to ISO9002 and QS9000, combined with the latest design, production and distribution techniques ensure continuity of supply, rapid delivery and competitive prices across the range.
