Lesjöfors To Introduce More Than 800 New Springs At AAPEX

These additions for domestic, Asian and European vehicles increase the product range to more than 5,000 coil spring part numbers and more than 1,600 gas spring part numbers.

Lesjöfors announced the development and release of more than 800 new suspension coil springs and dozens of new gas spring lift assists for hoods, trunks and tailgates. These additions for domestic, Asian and European vehicles increase the product range to more than 5,000 coil spring part numbers and more than 1,600 gas spring part numbers. More than 100,000 springs are stocked in the new U.S. Lesjöfors warehouse in Pittston, Pennsylvania.

“We are investing heavily in our U.S. operation to secure the best range and industry-leading service to the market,” said Robert Glynn, vice president and general manager of IAM. “We are naturally known for our European range, and absolutely committed to being respected for our U.S. domestic range offering.”

Lesjöfors coil springs are manufactured using superior grade, high-strength spring steel in the Lesjöfors factory in Lesjöfors, Sweden. They are cold coiled, heat treated, shot peened and pre-set for increased fatigue strength. Superb corrosion resistance is achieved through a special zinc phosphate coating and electrostatically applied epoxy powder resin paint. The springs are certified to ISO9001, TS16949 and ISO14001 standards to meet or exceed OE quality.

“It amazes me how the dynamics of a single piece of steel can be altered to perform all the incredibly important functions a suspension coil spring provides,” said Jim Markle, vice president of sales and marketing. “There is so much passion and care at our factory to ensure these springs are designed and manufactured to excel at the job they are intended to do.”

Lesjöfors springs are fully cataloged through an online e-catalog, ACES and a new catalog app for smart phones.

Lesjöfors will be displaying a wide variety of its existing and new products in booth No. 3281 at AAPEX, taking place from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2 at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas.

Do you speak spark plug? Most part numbers are a meaningless series of numbers and letters. But spark plugs have a language on the side of the box that can tell you what’s inside. Like any other language, there are dialects.

The nomenclature of spark plug part numbers can tell you everything from size (diameter and reach) to what materials are on the center and ground electrode. Like learning a new language, knowing how to translate spark plug numbers can open up a new way to inventory and sell spark plugs for counter professionals.
