Higher load, less space

It was determined early on in the design process that the clutching thrust required in the space available could only be achieved by a Disc Spring design. Compared to conventional coil springs, Disc Springs offer a higher load capacity in less space.

For this application Spirol recommended a custom design that offered alternate dimensions, material, and secondary operations. For this demanding and high performance application, these special features added significant value and ended up costing only pennies more.
