Secondary Operations

Wire Form Threading, Chamfering, Swaging, Drilling and More

In addition to finishing, assembly and packaging services, Master Spring offers a number of secondary spring and wire form services like threading, chamfering, swaging, drilling, tapping and welding.  Are you looking for something else?  Contact us today.  We’ll work with your team to craft the custom spring or wire form you require.

Compression Spring Grinding
The ends of some compression springs are ground flat to improve squareness and reduce buckling during operation.  We grind compression springs (ground ends) with wire diameters as low as .008” and up to .276”.  Squared and ground springs are normally supplied with a bearing surface of 270 degrees to 330 degrees.  Additional grinding results in thin sections.

Wire Form Threading
Your application may call for the end of your wire form to be threaded, so a knob or bolt can be assembled to it.

Wire Form Chamfering
Some wire forms have one or both ends chamfered to remove any sharp edges or to make the ends tapered.

Wire Form Swaging
Some wire forms have a section squeezed to create a protuberance from the wire.

Wire Form Drilling
Some wire forms require a hole drilled through.  Some holes require a counter-bore.
