How long are long extension springs?

When it comes to long extension springs, we typically look at the overall length, which means the length from end to end. For custom springs, we also look for the body length measurement, which is just the length of the body coils. This can be measured in inches, or the number of coils can be counted. The overall length of our in stock extension springs can reach up to 20 inches long. We have made custom long extension springs as long as 10 feet or longer in length.
