Elevators & Hoists

Buffer and governor springs for lift and hoist assemblies

Lift installations depend on springs that behave identically on the first cycle and the millionth. We manufacture buffer springs, governor tension springs and door-operator springs to drawing, with consistent free length and load-at-height so installation and commissioning are predictable across a building's full bank of lifts.

Batch-to-batch consistency

A lift bank needs identical load characteristics across every car. Variation in free length shows up as uneven levelling.

Safety-critical duty

Buffer and governor springs are inspected components. Material grade and set removal have to be documented.

Long service intervals

Springs sit compressed in a shaft for years, so set and relaxation matter as much as initial load.

How we solve it

What we supply for elevators

  • Buffer compression springs with controlled free length and solid height
  • Governor and safety-gear tension springs with formed hook ends
  • Pre-set and stress-relieved to minimise load loss in service
  • Repeat batches held to the approved first-article sample
  • Material test certificates supplied on request
