The disadvantages of spring steel wire are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1.Easy to rust: some spring steel wire, especially high carbon content varieties, may rust after a long time use. This is mainly because the protective coating may wear over time, leaving the wire exposed to air and prone to react with oxygen and water and rust. Rust not only affects the appearance of spring steel wire, but also may reduce its mechanical properties and service life.
2. Easy fatigue fracture: under repeated external forces, spring steel wire may be due to fatigue and fracture. This is because under the action of stress, the structure of the steel wire will gradually change, resulting in reduced strength, and eventually fracture. This kind of fatigue fracture is one of the common failure modes of spring steel wire.
3. Processing Difficulty: although the spring steel wire has a good machinability, but in some special shape and size of the manufacturing process, may still face greater processing difficulty. This is mainly due to the high hardness and toughness of steel wire, the need for special processing equipment and technology to achieve accurate molding.
4. Higher prices: high-quality spring steel wire is usually more expensive, mainly because of its complex manufacturing process, the need to use high-quality raw materials and fine machining process. Therefore, in some cost-sensitive applications, the use of spring wire may increase the cost of the product.
It should be noted that different types and specifications of spring steel wire in the performance and application of differences, so its shortcomings may also be different. In the selection and use of spring steel wire, the need for specific application needs and scenarios for trade-offs and considerations.
