Canted Coil in Seals, Valves and Actuators

Canted Coil in Seals, Valves and Actuators

What do you use?

Do you use springs in the seals, valves and actuators you design?  Do you use compression springs or canted coil?  And do you know what improvements you could make to the performance and reliability of your piece of equipment just by choosing to use canted coil instead of compression springs?

What is canted coil?

Canted coil, on the other hand is a fairly recent invention.  First manufactured less than fifty years ago, canted coil employs a unique slanted coil design that gives a near constant force when compressed. This makes it a powerful choice for energising seals used in valves and other applications.

Benefits

Specific benefits of canted coil over traditional compression springs, as a result of its unique design, include superior load capacity (making it a more efficient use of space), adaptability to both static and dynamic conditions and exceptional durability.
