Common Spring Types and Their Uses
Every industrial or building project takes a lot of equipment and machinery to get the job done. From steel plate and bar to cranes and tractors. One of the most used pieces of equipment though, which is often overlooked by those of us not in the building world, is overlooked. The spring is an amazingly versatile tool, without which most projects would never survive.Below are just a few spring types and what they are commonly used for
Compression Springs: A compression spring is an open-coil helical spring that offers resistance to a compressive force applied axially. Compression springs are usually coiled as a constant diameter cylinder. Other common forms of compression springs--such as conical, tapered, concave, convex or various combinations of these--are used as required by the application. While square, rectangular, or special-section wire may have to be specified, round wire is predominant in compression springs because it is readily available and adaptable to standard coiler tooling.
Extension Springs: An extension spring is designed to resist a pulling force. As the extension spring is being pulled outward, the resistance to the initial tension increases. It is the initial tension that determines the load capacity of the extension spring.
Torsion Springs: A Torsion spring is connected to other components. When these components exert force onto the spring, the spring tries to push the components back to their original position. Torsion Springs are found in many everyday products. They are used in automobile suspensions, garage door assemblies, clothes pins, and mousetraps.

From the form you can see that the titanium can reduce much more weight.
The steel springs will have to be longer and with larger diameter.
But the titanium can resolve this problem for you.
