MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE
TESTING NOTES
Springs were fatigue tested at 4 hz in a cantilevered loading.
Exposure to finishing operations: One time exposure to
elevated temperatures of up to 400°F (204°C) for 15 to 20
minutes, typical for the application of coatings, have no
effect on the performance of the composite springs.
