custom magazine springs by katy spring
magazine springs are one of katy spring’s specialities
Key Characteristics
Shape: Magazine springs are typically coiled springs, often in a zigzag or serpentine pattern. This design allows them to fit into the narrow, elongated space of a magazine while providing sufficient force to push the ammunition upward.
Material: These springs are usually made from high-tensile materials such as stainless steel or music wire, ensuring durability, corrosion resistance, and the ability to maintain their shape and strength over many compression cycles.
Functionality: The primary function of a magazine spring is to maintain consistent pressure on the stack of ammunition cartridges, pushing them toward the top of the magazine to be fed into the firearm’s chamber.

Ordering Custom Compression Springs
- The basic information needed by Katy Spring is material, wire size, free length, number of coils, travel, diameter, end types, finish, works over, works in, and maximum solid height.
- It is crucial to carefully consider the space allotted to ensure that the spring will function properly and avoid costly design changes.
- Katy Spring can assist customers in determining design parameters if only partial data is available.
- Specify a force with a tolerance (+/- 10 percent) at an exact compressed height rather than a definite deflection. Spring rate is the difference of two forces divided by the amount of deflection between those forces.
- Make Katy Spring aware of unusual conditions such as temperature, corrosive environments, impact force, and fatigue life.
- Specify the mandatory requirements only to Katy Spring, and leave the exact wire size and number of coils to the discretion of Katy Spring whenever possible.
