Rateing Coil Springs

To rate coil springs without a rater, you need to know the wire diameter in inches, number of active coils, and mean coil diameter in inches, which is calculated from the inside diameter plus one wire thickness and outside diameter minus one wire thickness. With these measurements, you can use the formula G=8*D^4*N/D to calculate the spring rating.

HOW TO RATE COIL SPRINGS WITHOUT A RATER

G=
D=Wire Diameter in Inches
N=Number of Active Coils
D=Mean Coil Diameter in Inches. Mean Diameter is:
I.D. = 1 Wire plus inside Diameter
O.D. = 1 Wire minus outside Diameter
8=A Constant for all Coil Springs
