Mechanical Spring Representation
Mechanical Spring Representation
(OP)
I'm running up against a wall in specifying the standards for information that needs to be included on an engineering drawing of a spring. So I thought I'd ask the experts. I have done a search and checked the FAQs, but I haven't found anything yet. ANSI Y14.13M used to be the standard, but it was rescinded. Is it MIL STD 29A? Surely I'm missing something obvious.

Check this link and go to page 4 it shows you how and what to specify for a compression spring:-

If you intend to purchase a custom spring using a SCD, work with your vendor to ensure they are comfortable with everything specified on your drawing before releasing it. But also make sure your final SCD explicitly defines every detail so there is no confusion over the finished product your vendor needs to deliver.
