Back to basics on extension springs
Extension springs – otherwise known as tension springs – are indispensable to many operations in vehicle applications and elsewhere, for example as returns on engine controls, also farm machinery, horse boxes, caravans, trampolines, garage doors, medical devices, toys, washing machines and white goods, and in the construction industry. They are characterised by a loop or hook on either end which is connected to other components giving them extra strength and manoeuvrability.
