#2 Working Drawing of a torsion spring
#3 Different Shapes of Helical Torsion Springs
There are generally two common types of torsion springs: single and double coil torsion springs. Double torsion springs are two single torsion springs connected. They work together to double the torque that a single spring would produce.
#4 Available Coating Method
Due to the government's environment policy, all the coating materials are prior to RoHS standards. Please take RoHS standard coating as possible as you can. Below is a table for reference, you can simply learn the cost of each coating method.
