High-carbon spring steels are the most commonly used of all
springs materials.
Try to use these materials in preference to others because that are least expensive,
readily available, easily worked, and most popular. These materials are not satisfactory
for high or low temperatures or for shock or impact loading.
Method of Manufacture Chief Uses Special Properties
Cold drawn. Average stress applications. Lower cost springs and wire forms. Hard Drawn is the most inexpensive general purpose spring steel and should be used only where life, accuracy, and deflection are not too important.
