Smalley goes¦ Smaller!

From medical devices to electronics, the world around us is getting smaller. How small can you go? This is one of the questions a TFC engineer hears all the time.

We are pleased to announce that Smalley™s newly expanded manufacturing capabilities now allow us to design and manufacture The Engineer™s Choice™ for Wave Springs and Spirolox Retaining Rings down to 4mm/0.165 diameters.

For over 50 years, TFC’s engineers have pushed the limits on coiling technology. Smalley™s Crest-to-Crest® Wave springs originated nearly 35 years ago with the promise of space savings and continue to provide spring height reductions of nearly 50% compared to standard coil springs. We are now able to offer engineers space saving capabilities in applications and industries that have long sought the use of our technology, states Simon Ward, TFC’s Product Manager.
