24. Suspension Coil Spring

An automotive suspension coil spring, engineered to support vehicle mass and absorb dynamic road impacts. A heavy-duty, linear-rate helical spring with closed and ground ends. + The flat ground ends ensure the spring will mate perfectly perpendicular to a strut mount or spring cup. + The stiffness of the spring (Spring Rate) determines the vehicle's static ride height and its natural frequency (how fast the car oscillates after a bump). + During acceleration, braking, and cornering, the springs resist the transfer of weight, preventing excessive body roll or nose-diving.
