Compression springs are a type of helical spring which bears directional pressure. Its material section is mostly circular and it is also made of rectangular and multi stranded steel. Compression springs are also known as coil springs. They are open-coiled steel wire in a variety of cross sections and forms of linear applications. Compression springs provide a force (push) to return the spring back to its normal weight. The force produced by compressions springs makes them an excellent component to store energy. Compression springs are used in everyday items such as pens, cars and mobile phones. They vary in size and degrees of stiffness known as spring rate. Compression springs are mostly used in cars in seats to yield to the body and increase comfort. Compression springs are also used in the suspension of the car to absorb the shocks of the road. Compression springs are also found in major appliances, tools, lawn mowers, medical instruments and other electronics. Compressions springs store mechanical energy and releases it when the opposing force is removed. Compression springs vary in size and wire diameter.
