Battery Spring and Contact Design Information


Metal hooks are designed to provide support by holding or hanging items. They’re created to withstand weight and pressure, maintaining their original shape with little give after the load is removed, making them suitable for a range of applications. These durable metal hooks are utilized in paint shops to powder coat products, in butcher shops to hang meat, and in so much more! There are many design considerations that must be taken into account during the design process to ensure optimal hook performance.

Newcomb Spring offers design assistance to optimize your product. Whether you’re looking to reduce production costs, enhance its functionality, ensure the fit of the product, or more, we’ve got you covered.

Design Considerations


When designing metal hooks, the choice of material is crucial, as it must endure the specific loads and environmental conditions expected. Steel is preferred for its strength, stainless steel for its corrosion resistance, and aluminum for its light weight. The design must also incorporate a suitable load capacity, ensuring the hook can handle stresses without failing.

The shape and size of the hook are critical for functionality, ensuring it fits the space and securely holds the intended items. Additionally, it’s essential to apply appropriate surface treatments, like powder coating, to enhance the hook’s durability and resistance to wear.
