Tapered vs grinded springs ends
Tapered vs grinded springs ends
(OP)
Can somebody tell me which ends (tapered or grinding) are better for compresson coil spring for rail industry? I know that standards dont deal whit it. But can it make differences in fatigue life, lateral characteristic of springs or so...?

So in my opinion lateral characteristic has more to do with design of end coil (I mean the gap between end of spring and active coil and of course the cross coil).

1. Squared and ground
2. Plain ends
3. Squared or closed ends
4. Plain ends ground

In my opinion there could be just bigger decarburization in case of tapered ends cause of one more heating. And then lower fatigue life...
