Frequently Asked Questions
Please allow 4-6 weeks for most orders (depending on the size of order and work schedule at time). As we generally manufacture to specific needs, we do not carry a big stock of equipment. Smaller orders can take less time.

We use galvanized steel wire for our springs which are made individually and manufactured here in Australia.
Other steel springs can rust leading to weakness, whilst some plated springs are subject to hydrogen embrittlement which again can cause weakness and breakage
The coned ends of the springs eliminates the loop stress of a standard tension spring, and with swivel loops on each end provide a safe and durable spring. We recommend for safety that the hooks should be a minimum 2 gauges heavier than the actual spring wire diameter.
