For over 50 years, M & S Spring Company has manufactured torsion springs, compression springs, and extension springs using stainless steel wire because of its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. We manufacture springs using several stainless steel grades including 302, 304, 316, and 17-7 PH. 17-7 stainless steel is an extremely popular grade for all applications because it offers long life under extreme environments and conditions. Our 17-7 stainless steel springs meet ASTM A 313 standards and exhibit superior fatigue properties, elasticity, and ductility. Furthermore, 17-7 springs have a high yeild strength and good corrosion resistance.
