Diameter of Spring Wire from Load Stress Equation Formula

LaTeX Go

Diameter of spring wire = sqrt(Wahl Factor of Spring*(8*Axial Spring Force*Spring Index)/(pi*Shear Stress in Spring))
d = sqrt(K*(8*P*C)/(pi*𝜏))

Define Spring Index?

The spring index is the relationship between the mean diameter and wire diameter. Springs with small indexes increase tooling wear and are more likely to require additional processing steps to ensure adequate life. Large index springs often require additional tolerance on both diameter and length.
