Custom Metal Stamping of 302 Stainless Steel Arched Feed Springs for Medical Industry
​
Using Auto Cad design software, General Wire & Stamping Co., Inc. was able to build an arched spring ejector for a medical industry client based in Connecticut. These springs are designed to be used in a surgical staple applier. Using our advanced progressive die stamping technology, we construct each piece from grade 302 stainless steel. Upholding a (+/-) .002 inch precision tolerance, each product meets specific size specifications, measuring .014 inches in thickness, .75 inches in length, and .312 inches in width.
​
After the springs are formed, we follow carefully developed and controlled finishing processes, including burnishing, cleaning and passivation operations, to ensure a smoother, shinier, more corrosion-resistant finish. Advanced quality planning assures our products meet or exceed customer requirements, insuring client satisfaction. We have produced in excess of three million spring ejectors per year, offering just-in-time delivery service in bar-coded bags and boxes to ensure safe distribution.
