The Compression springs are mechanical springs designed to store energy when compressed and release it when the compressive force is removed. Compression springs are characterized by their ability to compress under load and return to their original shape when the force is removed. The number of turns determines the spring's stiffness or spring rate—how much force is required to compress the spring a certain distance. In this case, the spring has 17 turns, indicating its compression characteristics. The thickness of the wire contributes to the strength and durability of the spring, while the outer diameter determines the overall size of the uncompressed spring.
