Standard Spring Dimension Tolerances for Custom and Stock Springs

At Acxess Spring we aim to manufacture your custom springs with precision as there are certain standard industry tolerances that must be adhered to. Below you will find a list of all the standard tolerances for compression springs, extension springs, torsion springs, garter springs, and conical and barrel springs.
