3CS Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 3CS is a compression spring manufactured by Century Spring Corp. It is constructed from music wire, a high-carbon steel alloy known for its excellent tensile strength and fatigue resistance. The spring features closed ends, which provide flat bearing surfaces for stable load application.

 

Key mechanical specifications include a free length of 1.500 inches (38.10 mm), an outer diameter of 0.266 inches (6.76 mm), and a wire diameter of 0.023 inches (0.58 mm). The spring rate is 1.8 lbs/in, indicating the force required to compress the spring one inch. The spring is finished with a zinc coating for corrosion resistance.

 

This compression spring is suitable for a wide range of applications requiring reliable elastic force, such as in mechanical assemblies, actuators, and industrial equipment. The closed ends ensure that the spring can be used in applications where a flat bearing surface is needed. The combination of music wire and zinc finish provides durability and moderate corrosion protection.
