Trusted Military Spring Manufacturer
Our history with military manufacturing began during the First World War when we manufactured springs for use in oxygen equipment control valves for military aviators. Since then, our relationship with the defense industry has grown, and we produce precision springs for a variety of applications.
Military Applications
Our torsion springs are frequently used for counterbalancing heavy armored hatch covers and cargo doors in M1A1 Abrams Tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles. They are also used to separate the first-stage booster on sea-launched cruise missiles. Using constant force springs to counterbalance is also required for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) launch and recovery mechanisms. Other industrial springs we manufacture are frequently used for fuel dispensing and aircraft refueling.
We have experience in creating difficult and unique spring products for our clients in the defense industry. Talk with John Evans’ Sons about designing a custom solution to meet your needs.
