Because nearly all fatigue and stress corrosion failures originate at the surface of a part, the layer of compressive stress induced by shot-peening produces a dramatic increase in the working life and fatigue strength of the grid. This technological improvement in manufacturing process coupled with precise monitoring of raw material specification and control of trapezoidal shape, permits TB Wood’s to offer state of the art grid springs of high performance and reliability.
