Let me try another suggestion.
If you are trying to do what I think you are doing then let me suggest a redesigned spring so that you can use a standard part.
Suppose you have an outer part:
- machine a round grove into that like so

And you have an inner part:

Perhaps you could buy a piece of key steel.
Key steel comes in rectangular sections and can be purchased in small lengths as well. Perhaps there is something close to a 2mm by 4mm section.You could obtain that from an engineering supply...
Hi there,
My metallurgy knowledge is not so great.
Does anybody know if there is a spring material with the following properties:
1. Non magnetic
2. Not extremely expensive
I am looking at the possibility of making a spring similar to a wind up clock with no magnetic effect.
I know of people...
