Thanks very much Dave! I think I need a tad bigger diam (say 10mm) but will give it a try.
first figure out what you actually want.
stiffness (see 'Hooks law' for a definition) compression or tension? (and if tension what starting load) which of the above parameters is diameter, or do you want a rectangular cross-section? material, (eg spring steel/stainless etc) finish (black/bright/zinc/nickel/gold passivate/galv....) Then hit the yellow pages and look up spring manufacturers.
OTOH I've seen racks with springs in bolt shops and hardware shops.
Bye. Jasen
