Garter Springs
A
Garter spring can start with either a compression or extension spring
configuration.
The ends of the spring are then connected so the finished
spring is a circle exerting radial forces.
Connecting the ends can be
accomplished in several ways; interlocking the end loops, tapering one
end and screwing into the opposite end, soldering, or using another
short extension spring as a connector by screwing it into both ends
of the spring body.
Garter springs are commonly used in seals and can apply either a pushing
action or a pulling action with radial pressure.
