A Compression Spring is a type of mechanical Spring that resists compression when a force is applied to it. The locknut is threaded onto a bolt or stud that is attached to the screed plate, and the Compression Spring is placed over the bolt or stud between the locknut and the wear plate. When the locknut is tightened, it compresses the Spring, which in turn applies tension to the wear plate, holding it securely in place.Attributes:• Provides a constant force over a wide range of deflections• Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability, and reliabilityApplications:A Compression Spring is used in conjunction with a locknut to provide support and maintain proper alignment and stability to the wear plate.
