Polyurethane (PU) springs, also known as urethane springs, are high-performance elastomeric components designed to replace traditional metal or rubber springs. Engineered from premium polyether-polyurethane, they deliver superior load capacity, exceptional resilience, outstanding wear resistance, and reliable vibration damping even in harsh industrial environments. Unlike metal springs, PU springs are non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, and quiet in operation, making them the ideal choice for press tooling, stamping dies, heavy machinery, automotive, and mining applications. | |
· High Load-Carrying Capacity: Withstand heavy loads up to 55 MPa tensile strength; 100% load-bearing surface for efficient force transfer.
· Exceptional Resilience: Compression set <10%; rebound reliably after repeated compression (up to 15% continuous deflection, 25% intermittent).
· Superior Durability: Resist abrasion, oils, greases, solvents, ozone, and corrosion; service life 3–5x longer than rubber/metal springs.
· Wide Temperature Range: Operate reliably from -40°C to +80°C (standard); special formulations up to +120°C.
· Non-Magnetic & Electrically Insulating: No magnetic interference; safe for electronic/medical equipment.
· Noise & Vibration Reduction: Dampen shocks and vibrations effectively; quiet operation vs. metal springs.
· Customizable: Available in cylindrical, rectangular, tube, bushing, pad, and custom-molded shapes; multiple durometers (Shore A 70–95).

A: PU springs offer higher load capacity per unit size, non-magnetic properties, corrosion resistance, noise reduction, and longer service life. They are ideal for applications where metal springs fail due to vibration, corrosion, or magnetic interference.
A: - 70–80 Shore A: Light to medium loads, high deflection, soft damping.
· 90 Shore A: Medium to heavy loads, balanced deflection, general-purpose.
· 95 Shore A: Heavy loads, low deflection, maximum load capacity.
A: Standard PU springs operate up to +80°C. For higher temperatures (up to +120°C), we offer special high-temperature formulations.
