The Unique Benefits of Coiled Spring Pins in Dynamic Assemblies (by SPIROL)
Coiled Spring Pins offer a unique combination of flexibility, strength, and durability that makes them well suited for dynamic assemblies exposed to shock, vibration, and repeated loading. Their lightweight design helps minimise overall assembly weight, while appropriate material selection can further enhance performance and service life in demanding operating conditions. By Michael Pasko, Applications Engineer at SPIROL The Coiled Spring Pin was invented by Herman J.
Clever seam design for hinges
Coiled spring pins are manufactured with a seam, making them better suited for hinge applications than the gap or slot found in slotted spring pins. The seam is inherent to coiled pins because they are rolled with more than one wrap of material. The coiled pin’s “duty” affects the material thickness and number of wraps, but all coiled pins possess a seam. Some assume that a coiled pin’s seam is raised above the surface of the pin. This is not the case.
Technology for OEM Design Engineers
By Michael Pasko, Engineer, SPIROL International Corporation, Danielson, CT Figure 1. Left, slotted spring pins have a "C" shape. Coiled spring pins (right) have 2 1/4 coils of rolled material. Coiled spring pins are manufactured with a seam that is much better for hinges than the gap or slot of slotted spring pins (see Figure 1). The seam is inherent to coiled pins because they are rolled with more than one wrap of material.
Benefits of 420 chrome stainless steel coiled spring pins
Benefits of 420 chrome stainless steel coiled spring pins SPIROL invented the Coiled Spring Pin in 1948 – these can be used in many industries including automotive, medical, heavy equipment, military, aerospace and consumer products. In applications requiring a combination of high strength, superior fatigue life and corrosion resistance, 420 martensitic chrome stainless steel offers a host of technical benefits and provides an overall robust cost-effective solution.

Features and benefits of ArmorGalv® thermal zinc diffusion
Features and benefits of ArmorGalv® thermal zinc diffusion 19 April 2017 By Michael J. Pasko Ref: FFT170419 Thermal diffused zinc, a finishing process historically known as sherardising, has been used for corrosion protection of metal parts for over a century, and over the years improvements have been made. The modern, greatly improved process, known as ArmorGalv® is now being introduced to the fastener industry by SPIROL. Ref: FFT170419
