Betts Spring Manufacturing continues to develop and manufacture suspension springs for military applications. We source the best materials and use the latest spring testing equipment to make sure our springs can meet specified load tolerances. This is very important when equipping vehicles such as the Humvee or MRAP where significant increases on load can put strain on the suspension.
In most cases, these types of military vehicles are outfitted with extra armor to protect against bullets and explosives. This extra weight can put existing stock military suspension under extra stress and could cause failure. Utilizing custom springs exclusively built for military vehicles will prevent failure points and ensure stability when traveling.
We can accommodate any military spring application. Give us a call or contact us by using the form for more info.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Betts have experience with aerospace and defense industries?
Yes. We’re ITAR registered, which covers defense and military applications requiring controlled material handling and security clearances.
We’ve worked with large defense contractors to produce CARC-coated parts. CARC, or Chemical Agent Resistant Coating, is the coating standard the military uses on tactical vehicles and equipment to resist chemical warfare agents.
On the aerospace and medical device side, we provide the documentation those industries require, including material certifications, lot traceability, and process verification. If your project needs specific aerospace certifications beyond ITAR registration, bring that requirement to our team directly so they can confirm what applies to your application.
