Clock spring
The clock spring (also referred to as a flat torsion spring) is designed to produce a torsional force (circular movement). In contrast to the tightly coiled motor spring on the previous page, the clock spring has open coils that, when mounted correctly, reduces fricton to zero. However, torque capacity is reduced as a result. The standard range is made from rounded edge stainless steel, which affords a better fatigue life.
