Oil Tempered Wire

Technical
Product
Information
Spring wire for applications with high performance demands
Suzuki Garphyttan has produced wire since 1906.

Since 1927 the main product is oiltempered valve
spring wire for the automotive industry. During the
years others specialty wires such as stainless round
wire, flatrolled and shaped wire in carbon, low alloyed
and stainless material, have been added to the
product program. We have acquired extensive knowledge and experience of steel grades, efficient
manufacturing and quality control which is crucial to
the properties of the finished product. Large resources
are invested in research concerning improved
properties of our products and improved manufacturing processes, enabling Suzuki Garphyttan to be
world leader in the manufacturing of spring wire.
The main focus is spring wire for combustion
engines (valve and transmission springs, piston
rings, compression rings, fuel injection springs)
and other automotive applications.
Coiling properties
Defect free surfaces, narrow dimensional and tensile strength tolerances are important in achieving
the best properties for spring coiling. Each wire is continuously controlled during the entire
manufacturing from wire rod to the finished product according to a specific control plan.
Certified quality
Suzuki Garphyttan has a Quality Management System certified according to the International Standard
for Quality ISO TS 16949.
Our main wire rod suppliers also have Quality Management Systems certified by a third party
according to ISO 9001 as a minimum and are also regularly audited by Suzuki Garphyttan.
Technical support
We are prepared to assist you in utilizing modern materials for maximum performance. For us it is
obvious and necessary to be at the front, to serve our customers, discussing problems and areas for
development in existing as well as new products.
Environmental awareness
Our goal is to manufacture high quality products without any negative effects on the environment. We
are continuously improving our manufacturing processes to improve both internal and external
environment. Before new investments are made, special consideration is given to environmental
solutions.
We are certified according to ISO 14001.
For more information regarding different elements in our products we recommend the database
IMDS International Material Data System where each element is named with a separate CAS-No.

Specialty steel spring wire for applications with high performance requirements

OTEVA oil tempered valve spring wire

For valve springs in combustion engines as well as
for transmission and crankshaft damper springs
subjected to extreme fatigue. OTEVA grades cover
different demands of high performance in tensile
strength and fatigue life.
High quality
oil tempered
wire
Our valve spring wire grades differ from each other in

terms of chemical, mechanical and technical
properties as well as required surface finish with
regard to surface depth and decarburization levels.
Oil tempered wire is also manufactured with egg or
elliptical cross sections. Profiled cross sections give
the advantage of optimum distribution of stresses in a
spring (see fig.).
KD oil tempered clutch and

transmission spring wire
For use in clutch springs of different types with
various performance demands. KD is an oil tempered
wire with good dynamical characteristics, excellent
coiling characteristics and good relaxation properties.
Stress distribution

comparing round (picture
to the right) and egg
shaped (picture to the
left) wire respectively.
STATO oil tempered spring wire

An oil tempered wire grade used for springs subjected
to static stress or moderate fatigue. STATO is
available in different types of steel demanding
ultimate tensile strength, and relaxation properties
comparable to the OTEVA grades. Good coiling
characteristics make STATO an excellent alternative
to cold drawn spring wire.

Yield point
The proof stress Rp0.2 is min. 0.8 x tensile strength of the
wire. The proof stress will rise above 0.9 x tensile strength

In the standard size range 2.20 - 6.00 mm the wire is tested
continuously in Eddy Current equipment to a surface level

End sample test
The wire is end sample tested by means of etch testing and
binocular inspection as well as microscopical inspection of
the material structure.
Decarburization and surface defect depths
Max. permissible depth of partial surface decarburization
and surface defects, 0.5% x wire diameter. No complete

Non-metallic inclusions
The presence of non-metallic inclusions in the wire rod is
inspected for every heat in accordance with the Suzuki
Garphyttan method (or alternative max. T-method).

Heat treatment
As soon as possible after coiling, the springs should be
stress relieved. Depending on nitriding temperature used
later in the valve spring manufacturing process, this
temperature may be decreased.
Hot presetting
After shot peening, the springs should be hot preset or
stress relieved. In order to reach optimum fatigue and
relaxation properties, the springs must be preset at an
appropriate stress.

Shot peening
In order to obtain optimum fatigue properties, the process
time should be adjusted to get a complete treatment. Size
of shots should be adapted to wire dimension, pitch and

For nitrided springs with an extremely hard surface zone, it
is important to use a shot peening media with high
hardness.
Shot peening of the inside of the spring coils is particularly
critical.

Heat treatment
As soon as possible after coiling, the springs
should be stress relieved.
Shot peening
process time should be adjusted to get a
complete treatment. Size of shots should be
adapted to wire dimension, pitch and shot
peening equipment.
Hot presetting
After shot peening, the springs should be hot
preset or stress relieved. In order to reach
optimum fatigue and relaxation properties, the
springs must be preset at an appropriate stress.
