Buying springs for the European market means working with European standards, environmental regulations and documentation requirements. EASON SPRING manufactures custom springs and wire forms that meet these expectations, with the documentation European buyers need for smooth customs clearance and quality assurance.
EN 10270 Spring Wire Standards
European buyers commonly specify spring wire according to EN 10270. We manufacture from all three parts of the standard:
| Standard | Material | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|
| EN 10270-1 | Patented cold drawn spring wire (SH / DH) | General industrial springs, music wire applications |
| EN 10270-2 | Oil hardened and tempered spring wire (DM / VD) | Fatigue-loaded springs, automotive and heavy-duty use |
| EN 10270-3 | Stainless steel spring wire (1.4310, 1.4401, AISI 302/316) | Corrosion-resistant and medical applications |
DIN Tolerances and Design Standards
- DIN 2095 – tolerances for cylindrical compression springs
- DIN 2096 – tolerances for hot-formed compression springs
- DIN 2088 – torsion spring ends and leg forms
Environmental Compliance: RoHS and REACH
Products entering the EU must comply with RoHS and REACH restrictions on hazardous substances. We can supply RoHS and REACH compliant materials and finishes, and provide declarations with your shipment. Where environmentally friendly finishes are required, we offer alternatives such as mechanical plating, electrophoretic coating and eco-friendly passivation.
Documentation for European Customers
- Material certificates to EN 10204 type 3.1
- Dimensional inspection reports against your drawing tolerances
- RoHS / REACH declarations
- Manufactured under an ISO 9001 quality system, with automotive projects supported to IATF 16949 requirements on request
