Hi Spring people.

There is any way to calculate the deflection of a extension spring used as a two bearing beam.?

Hi pardal

I have not seen any formula for the application you mention,
however could a single rectangular leaf spring be better suited to your application if so I can help you there?

Hi Desertfox, it is just what I thought , only similar to it is a formula to get the deflection on a cantilever beam.

Thanks any way.
