What is Spring Pitch?

Spring Pitch is the distance between the coils of a spring, measured in inches per coil. It is calculated by subtracting three times the diameter of the spring from its length and then dividing by the number of active coils. This measurement is crucial in determining the mechanical properties and behavior of the spring under load.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

SP=103×0.520=0.425 in/coil

The Spring Pitch (SP) is 0.425 in/coil.
