High Travel ConventionalFront Coil SpringsTECH-TIPSWhen rate testingconventional frontsprings it is importantto ensure the helix(rise) in the ratetester is the sameas the helix in thelower control armof the race car.For a complete listing ofhyperco tech-tips visit ourwebsite at:www.hypercoils.comTECHNICAL ASSISTANCEThe Closed End Advantage.Racers continue to chase the configuration and springrate of conventional front springs in order to get moresuspension travel on the race track. With Hyperco’sHigh-Travel Conventional Front Springs, we’re bringingour closed-end NASCAR style front spring technologyto the overall Hyperco Conventional front spring line.With traditionally designed, open-on-pitch frontsuspension coils, very little contact is made withthe riser. This means very little of the end coil ofthe spring will deaden out during the early portionof spring deflection. This creates a very progressivespring rate through the initial stages of deflection.The closed-end design of Hyperco’s High-TravelConventional Front Springs directly impacts thenumber of active coils that deflect during springcompression.The advantage? With our springs, it takes verylittle deflection for the coil to make full contactwith the riser, thus the spring reaches its stabilizedrate much sooner in the deflection. Static load isreached with less spring deflection, leaving moreon-track dynamic travel. And more travel on theracetrack enables more aggressive and fasterset-ups.(a) TheirsOur Stacked Dual Rate Spring System PackageThe Hyperco Difference? It’s Tunable!(b) HYPERCO(a) Their spring with open endinteracting with riser(b) HYPERCO Spring with nearlyclosed end interactingwith riser.The Hyperco (stacked) dual rate spring system has a difference… it’s tunable! A widevariety of racing categories have realized the winning advantage of Hyperco’s adjustabledual rate spring system. The Hyperco stacked spring hardware (Floater/Spring Divider inconjunction with a ring on the shock body) manages deflection/rate. It lets you controlthe transition from a relatively soft combined/dual spring rate for optimum weighttransfer and wheel movement, while also enabling you to tune the suspension at ahigher secondary rate that provides for maximum compliance and wheel/tire loading.Variable(Dual Rate)Technology6
CompositeLeaf SpringsLighter. Stronger. Faster.Hyperco Composite Leaf Springs are precisionmanufactured with an epoxy matrix compositematerial. Adapted from the aerospace industry,this material provides extraordinary strengththat is 70% lighter than steel.Molded to an exact true arch, the Hyperco CLSretains its shape for life. No need to put a caron jack stands ever again!On the track, the CLS provides more side bite offthe corners. It allows teams running leaf springsto be consistent race after race without having toconstantly measure, monitor and change theirsprings for loss of arch/sagging.Less weight and retention of the design archcombine to make the CLS a high performance/costeffectivealternative to steel leaf springs. The initialcost is a value based on the incredible service life.Leave the steel on the streets – hook-up withthe Hyperco CLS performance advantage.Performance-TunedCorvette C3, C4, C5 & C6Composite Leaf SpringsHyperco performance-tuned CorvetteComposite Leaf Springs enable the serious Corvette ownerto enhance the suspension performance of their car.C5 Series Available for both street and track –NEWThe High Performance Street Series (HPS)provides improved cornering ability, road feel and initialresponse while maintaining a quiet and comfortable ride. Rideheight adjusters, equipped with Delron pads, offer a wide rangeof tuning options. This enables the C5 owner to set the look andhandling of the car to their preference… mild to aggressive.The High Performance Track Series (HPT)offers the C5 owner a “race-ready” spring rate option for autocrossing, track days and competitive racing. The Delron padequippedheight adjusters support a wide range of set up choices,enabling the car to be tuned for all out performance.TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE WITH HYPERCO PRODUCTSTECH-TIPSMEASURING LEAF SPRINGS. To measure the arch, place the springon a flat surface with the arch up. Measure from the floor tothe bottom of the spring (“H” in the diagram), and then subtract3/4” from the total length.For Chrysler the overall length (eye to eye) is 53 7/8” and thepin to eye length is 20 1/2” (“L” in diagram). For Chevrolet, theoverall length (eye to eye) is 54” and the pin to eye length is 25” (“L” in diagram).For a complete listing of hyperco tech-tips visit our website at: www.hypercoils.com7
