This above figures are theoretical values only based on the vertical natural frequency of the spring system assuming in infinitely stiff structural
supports. The effects of high frequency spring coil resonances on low frequency performance are also ignored.

Compliance - Springs designed according to BS 1726 (Part 1) and recommendations made by

SAE (US) and ASHRAE

Due to policy of continual improvement, the specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
Measurements are subject to 5% tolerance, Load and Deflection subject to 10% tolerance.
To achieve good sound suppression do not over load fitting.
