FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 5) (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalized by the Automotive Springs and Suspension Sectional Committee had been approved by the Transport
Engineering Division Council.

This standard was originally published in 1979 and revised in 1989. The second revision of the standard was
undertaken as a result of further experience gained in the manufacture and use of the components and other
developments in the field.
.

The following technical changes have been incorporated:


a) Permissible deviations on nominal diameter of rods with a rolled surface and machined surface.
(
b) Permissible deviations of spring force.
c) Revision of reference standards which are necessary adjuncts to this standard.
d) Addition of IS 13190:1991 Recommended practice for eddy current examination by rotating probe
method of round steel bars which was under preparation earlier.

This standard is one of the series of standards on helical coiled compression springs. The other parts in this
series are as follows:

(Pm-t 1): 1997 Design and calculations for springs made from circular section wire and bar

(Part 2): 1997 Specification for cold coiled springs made from circular section wire and bar

(Pall 3): 1997 Data sheet for springs made from circular section wire and bar

(Part 4): 1987 Selection of standard cold coiled springs made from circular section wire and bar

(Part 6): 1978 Design and calculations for springs made from rectangular section bar steel

(Part 7): 1989 Quality requirements for cylindrical coil compression springs, used mainly as vehicle
suspension springs

(Part 8): 1989 Method of inspection of hot coiled compression springs made from circular section bars

In the preparation of this standard, assistance has been derived form DIN 2096 Part 1-1991 Helical compression
springs made of round wire and rod; Quality requirements for hot formed compression springs, issued by the
Deutsches Institut fur Normung (DIN).

The composition of the Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given at Annex A.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS 2: 1960 Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised). The number of significant places retained in
the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

Review of Indian Standards

Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the basis of comments. Standards are also reviewed
periodically; a standard along with amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates that no changes are
needed; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up for revision. Users of Indian Standards
should ascertain that they are in possession of the latest amendments or edition by referring to the latest issue of
BIS Catalogue and Standards: Monthly Additions.

This Indian Standard has been developed from Doc : No. TED 21 (339).
