A Shaker Spring Ball is a small, precision-engineered component combining a spring and a ball bearing. It is designed to provide controlled tension, cushioning, or positioning in mechanical assemblies, often used in vibrating or shaking equipment to absorb shocks and maintain contact pressure.

• Components: A small steel or stainless steel ball seated on or within a compression or extension spring

• Material: Typically made from hardened steel or stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance

• Function: Provides smooth, consistent pressure and damping action in dynamic applications

• Size: Available in various sizes to fit different equipment requirements

• Application: Often used in shaker tables, sieving machines, or devices where controlled vibration and contact force are needed

Description

A 14 Inch Taper Spring is a coil spring measuring approximately 14 inches in length with a tapered design, meaning the coil diameter or wire thickness gradually changes from one end to the other. This tapering allows for progressive load handling and unique compression characteristics compared to uniform springs.

• Length: Approximately 14 inches (can be customized slightly depending on application)

• Tapered Design: Either the coil diameter decreases or the wire thickness varies along the spring length, providing variable stiffness and progressive load response

• Material: Typically made from high-quality spring steel or stainless steel for durability and fatigue resistance

• Function: Offers smooth, controlled compression with increasing resistance as the spring compresses

• Durability: Engineered to withstand heavy loads and repeated cycles without permanent deformation

A double taper spring is a specialized compression spring featuring a conical shape that tapers on both ends, resulting in a wider middle section. This unique geometry allows the spring to compress smoothly with minimal coil binding, offering high stability, progressive spring rates, and efficient space utilization.

• Design: Conical spring tapered at both ends with the largest coil diameter at the center, providing balanced load distribution.

• Function: Reduces lateral instability and minimizes coil clash during compression, enhancing performance and longevity.

• Material: Made from high-quality spring steels or alloys such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or specialty metals for durability and fatigue resistance.

• Performance: Ideal for applications requiring progressive resistance and compact spring length under load.

• Space Efficiency: Allows for longer deflection in limited axial space compared to traditional cylindrical springs.

A taper compression spring is a conically shaped spring designed to provide a variable spring rate and efficient space utilization. Unlike cylindrical springs, taper compression springs have coils that decrease in diameter from one end to the other, allowing them to compress in a more controlled manner and reduce solid height when fully compressed.

• Design: Conical shape with a larger coil diameter at one end tapering to a smaller diameter at the other.

• Function: Offers progressive spring rates and minimizes coil binding during compression.

• Material: Typically made from high-strength materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel.

• Performance: Provides stable and predictable compression forces, excellent fatigue resistance, and space-saving benefits.

• Applications: Suitable for use in compact assemblies and applications requiring progressive load responses.
