Springs for Transit Applications
Whether they’re carrying commuters to and from work in the city or hauling important freight across state lines, transit systems keep society running efficiently. As a result, it’s important for buses, trains and light rails to receive the engineering attention they deserve.
High-quality components, including springs, allow public transit to become safer, quieter, more comfortable and more reliable. Such improvements benefit everyone — both within the transit industry and beyond. If you’re hoping to drive transit innovation, you require springs from a reliable spring manufacturer. At IDC Spring, we strive to be a one-stop mechanical transit spring manufacturer and supplier for customers in the transit industry.
We’ve been serving OEMs across the United States since 1974, and we’re proud to offer mechanical springs for use in a range of transit applications. Learn more about the products and services we offer the transit industry below.
High-Quality Transit Springs With Many Applications
In the creation of systems for public transit, component quality is of the utmost importance. After all, you can only build a safe, dependable system if the individual components you use meet standards of safety, performance and durability. To meet transit industry needs, we pay close attention to quality when we’re creating our transit industry springs.
One way to assure quality is to use high-quality materials. At IDC Spring, we manufacture mechanical springs using only the best materials and finishes. Choose from high-carbon steel, galvanized, stainless, chrome silicon, square wire, round wire, music wire, oil-tempered wire or hard drawn wire.
Another way we promote quality is by conducting a thorough examination of every product before it leaves our facilities. We test each piece for performance and durability, so you can feel confident in your transit springs’ ability to meet your high expectations.
We have a strong reputation for providing high-quality springs that our customers can trust, including torsion springs, extension springs, compression springs and specialty springs for numerous transit applications.
