At Industrial Springs, we regularly work on bespoke spring solutions tailored to high-performance applications. One recent project involved the manufacture of a custom stainless steel tension spring for a Ford Mustang GT350, designed to meet the exact performance and durability requirements of this iconic performance vehicle.

Engineering for Performance Applications
Performance vehicles such as the Mustang GT350 demand components that offer strength, reliability and precise mechanical behaviour. For this application, a stainless steel tension spring was selected to deliver consistent tensile force while offering excellent resistance to wear, corrosion and temperature variation.
Every aspect of the spring — from coil geometry and wire diameter to end configuration — was engineered to ensure dependable performance under dynamic operating conditions.
Why Stainless Steel?
Stainless steel is a popular choice for automotive tension springs due to its combination of mechanical and environmental advantages, including:
- High strength and fatigue resistance
- Excellent corrosion resistance, ideal for exposed or under-bonnet components
- Stable performance under varying temperatures
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
- These properties make stainless steel particularly suitable for custom automotive applications where both performance and durability are critical.
- Precision Manufacturing to Exact Requirements
This Mustang GT350 spring was manufactured to precise specifications, ensuring accurate extension characteristics and consistent load performance. Our experienced team worked closely with the project requirements to produce a spring that integrates seamlessly into the vehicle’s system while maintaining the quality expected in performance engineering.
From one-off custom components to repeat production runs, we apply the same attention to detail across every project.
Supporting Bespoke & Enthusiast Builds
In addition to industrial sectors, Industrial Springs regularly supports bespoke automotive builds, performance upgrades and specialist engineering projects. Whether the requirement is for a single custom spring or a short production run, our flexible manufacturing capabilities allow us to deliver reliable solutions without compromise.
