Coil spring force line control is an important aspect of spring design for coil-over-shock suspension type applications, such as MacPherson strut and coil-over-shock trailing arm applications, from ...

Friction springs act as buffers to absorb and dampen high levels of kinetic energy from a moving mass. They also work as overload-protection devices and handle high forces in a relatively small ...

Friction springs consist of radial rings that deform briefly and convert impact energy into frictional heat. Design them into your next design for damping. Carl Fenstermacher, President, Ringfeder ...

This article was originally published on Cycle World. Single-shock rear suspensions are near-universal today. Traditional twin-shock setups are still seen, but exist mainly for reasons of retro style.

The trickiest part of making a car both track- and street-worthy is the suspension. This is the double-edged sword because you want something soft enough to be comfortable and offer sufficient ...
