Engine Valve Springs

As an engine valve spring manufacturer specialist, the Force Technology team has unrivalled experience in the design and manufacture of engine valve springs. Achieving 20,000 rpm in the highest speed motorsport engines, to achieving multi-billion cycles and more than 20,000 hours in some of the world’s largest diesel engines. We have worked in partnership supporting many of the leading engine valvetrain design houses as valve spring manufacturers and designers for over 30 years supplying some of the world’s largest Original Equipment and Tier 1 manufacturers.

Our valve springs are used by world championship winning race teams and to set motorcycle world records. We manufacture engine valve springs for some of the world’s fastest supercars, high speed rail engines and the largest cruise liners.

All the parts are manufactured on site at the factory in Blackpool in the north west of England and parts are delivered globally.

We use the world’s best materials including valve quality grades of silicon chrome alloys with the addition of vanadium, nickel and molybdenum for high tensile and ultra-high tensile. Valve grade materials are available in superclean, eddy current tested and shaved options.

We can supply engine valve springs from 1.0mm wire diameter and up to 19.0mm wire diameter.

All parts are processed with very close attention to detail and to ensure the optimum in surface residual stress. All our valve springs are shot peening to the highest standards and we can offer hot pre-stressing and nitriding for the ultimate in performance and high fatigue.

Most of our products go through customer validation and we are very familiar with the requirements of PPAP. We can also offer in-house fatigue testing to 10 million cycles for most applications.

We work closely with our customers to become a fully integrated extension of their engine valve spring design team.

We design and manufacture engine valve springs for:

• Medium and Larger Sized Engines
  • Marine Power
  • Locomotive Power
  • Off Highway & Construction
