What is a Conical Compression Spring?

Understanding Tapered Spring Technology for Efficient Load Handling

A conical compression spring is a type of spring with a cone-shaped design, where the diameter gradually decreases from one end to the other. This unique geometry allows the spring to compress into a very compact height, making it ideal for applications with limited installation space.

Unlike standard cylindrical designs within the broader category of types of compression springs, conical springs offer improved stability, reduced buckling risk, and progressive load characteristics. HENNLICH designs these springs to deliver consistent force, longer service life, and reliable performance in industrial environments.
