Applications requiring high cyclic fatigue resistance, repeatability, and high performance are well served by composite springs.
Exceptional fatigue, corrosion, and creep resistance for fewer failures, longer spring life, and increased reliability compared to metal
Gordon Composites™ Molded Unidirectional Thermoset Barstock provided a corrosion-proof custom-shaped compression molded spring capable of deep deflection and high fatigue resistance for extended product life

In turn, deformation negatively impacted part tolerances, leading to poor fit and performance of the sprayer.
Other requirements were abrasion resistance and excellent aesthetics.
The material helps the company produce attractive, high-quality garden sprayers featuring precisely fitting parts.

Are current metal parts plagued with performance problems, such as corrosion?
Plastics inherently resist corrosion, eliminating concerns about rust and other forms of oxidation that can compromise metal components.
They are also up to 100 times more fatigue-resistant than polymers reinforced with short fibers, offering a high degree of mechanical resistance to high loads.
