Spring steel is a type of steel that’s specifically used to make springs and elastic components because it can return to its original shape after being bent, compressed, or extended. This ability, known as elasticity in the quenched and tempered state, is due to the high yield strength of steel, which comes from its specific composition and hardening process.
Spring steels are typically made up of medium-to-high carbon content, usually around 0.5 to 1.0 percent. In addition to carbon, they also contain manganese and silicon, with silicon being particularly important in achieving high yield strengths. Products made from these steel alloys can endure continuous bending, compression, extension, or twisting without suffering any permanent deformation.
Manufacturing spring steel requires advanced technical skills to ensure high quality. Any imperfections on the surface, such as decarburization or irregularities, can reduce the fatigue strength. Therefore, it’s essential for manufacturers to ensure that the springs have a perfectly smooth surface for optimal efficiency and performance.
Spring steels are alloys with a medium-to-high carbon content, usually ranging from 0.5 to 1.0 percent. They also contain other alloy additives such as manganese, nickel, chrome, vanadium, and molybdenum.
However, the essential element in the composition of spring steels is silicon. This material is valued for its durability and ability to maintain its shape and flexibility, making it well-suited for spring steel applications and contributing to the material’s high yield strength. This flexibility allows the material to be deformed and then return to its original position once the load has been removed.
Here are some common spring steel grades and their chemical composition.

Classification of Spring Steel
As per the steel classification standard GB/T 13304, spring steel is categorized as steel for mechanical structures based on its fundamental performance and service characteristics. In terms of quality grade, it falls under the special quality steel category, requiring strict control over its quality and performance during production. In Chinese custom, spring steel is considered special steel.
Based on the chemical composition, spring steel is further classified into carbon spring steels, alloy spring steels, stainless spring steels, copper-based spring alloys, and nickel-based spring alloys.

Characteristics & Application
The manganese in 60Si2Mn can improve the hardenability. Due to its high silicon content, its strength, hardenability, and tempering resistance are higher than those of carbon spring steel. However, due to its high silicon content, it has a high likelihood of surface decarburization and low cold deformation plasticity. After quenching and tempering, it has a higher yield-strength ratio, anti-relaxation ability, and tempering stability, especially the fatigue life is significantly improved.
60Si2Mn is suitable for manufacturing coil springs with a thickness of cross-section less than 25mm, and is widely used in heavy machinery, railway vehicles, and automobiles.

Characteristics & Application
55CrSi spring steel has high fatigue resistance and high relaxation resistance. Because the mass fraction of Si in it is relatively high, the elastic limit, yield-to-strength ratio, and resistance to fatigue can be significantly improved. Cr element is also added to enhance the mechanical properties. Cr has low sensitivity to elevated treatment, helping to eliminate the graphitization tendency of Si-containing spring steel.
55CrSi is widely used in the manufacture of brake springs, solid stabilizer bars, torsion bars, valve springs, shock absorber springs for high-end motorcycles, and mechanical springs for important purposes.
