Aerospace Springs

In the aerospace sector, every component is designed with a singular purpose: ensuring safety, reliability, and performance under extreme conditions. At European Springs, we are proud to supply aerospace-grade springs and pressings that form the backbone of modern aviation—from civilian aircraft to military. Our components are engineered to meet stringent tolerances and deliver flawless performance in even the most demanding environments.

Springs

In aerospace engineering, springs help with controlled movements and stabilise critical systems.

Landing Gear and Suspension Systems: Suspension springs in landing gear absorb the immense force of the plane hitting the runway during touchdown, converting high-impact energy into a smooth, controlled descent. This is not only for passenger comfort but also protects the aircraft’s structural integrity.
Flight Control and Stability: Beyond landings, aerospace springs are integral in fine-tuning the aircraft’s control surfaces. They provide the precise damping and feedback necessary for pilots to perform subtle adjustments to instruments, ensuring the aircraft remains stable in turbulent conditions and during rapid manoeuvres.

Pressings

While springs actively manage dynamic forces, pressings create the essential physical framework of an aircraft. Their precision-engineered shapes are crucial in forming the structure of wings, fuselages, and engine components.

Structural Integration: Pressings are used to reinforce wing structures, support fuselage components, and secure fasteners and mounting systems. Their seamless integration into all elements of what becomes an aeroplane structure needs to be a perfect fit to ensure the overall integrity of the aircraft.
Engine and Interior Applications: In engine assemblies, pressings contribute to the construction of combustion chambers and secure the engine to the wings, even under extreme temperatures and pressures. Similarly, inside the cabin where passengers sit, they ensure that seats, overhead compartments, and in-flight entertainment systems such as screens and remotes remain securely fastened when the aircraft is in motion.

Space Springs and Pressings

Our space-grade springs deliver precise performance for satellite deployment and orbital manoeuvres, while our high-performance pressings provide robust structural support for spacecraft and satellites. Engineered to operate in vacuums, withstand extreme temperature swings, and resist high radiation, our components meet strict aerospace standards using advanced materials and manufacturing techniques.
