Tension Spring
A tension spring is a type of helical spring that stores energy when it is stretched or compressed.
- They are typically made of steel wire and have a cylindrical shape.
- When stretched, the spring exerts an outward force, trying to return to its original length.
- Tension springs are commonly used in various applications, such as:
- Mechanical clocks
- Toys
- Automotive suspension systems
- Door closers
