Minimum Pricing

1 to 20 pieces

The table below shows the minimum lot charges for 1 to 20 pieces.  Our actual quote will depend on material type, complexity of combined dimensions, any additional operations and actual finish.  The plating in the chart assumes clear zinc plus 4 hours of baking to protect against hydrogen embrittlement.

Minimum Pricing (1 to 20 pieces) No Outside Finish With Outside Finish
Compression spring – not ground $550 $700
Compression spring – ends ground $600 $750
Extension spring $700 $850
Single Torsion spring $600 $750
Double Torsion spring $750 $900
Wire form $750 $900

The minimum lot charge covers engineering review time, purchase of the wire, setting up the machine, inspecting the parts, and any additional operations and finishing to custom-make the exact part that you want. We normally make your prototype with the same machine, tooling, and program as your part will run for production quantities. This gives you a realistic test of your prototype.

If your part is a standard, non-custom part and you require less than 100 pieces, you can get a lower price from a catalog spring company that keeps standard springs on the shelf. If you need a custom spring or wire form, then give us a call.  Also, if you are ordering more than approximately 500 standard springs, we can offer a competitive price versus the catalog spring company price.
