KYB has launched its brand new coil spring catalogue for 2013. The comprehensive catalogue features 73 new to range coil spring references, plus over 30 part numbers have been updated to cover additional applications.

KYB’s 2013 coil spring range provides the best car parc coverage in the European aftermarket. The new additions cover an impressive 4.5 million cars across Europe. Notable new applications include: BMW 1 Series, Fiat 500 and Bravo II, Ford Fiesta, Landrover Discovery, Mazda 2, Mercedes C Class, Nissan Micra and Qashqai, Peugeot Expert.

KYB is the only aftermarket supplier to offer a choice between both taper wire miniblock OE design and a constant wire alternative spring. Many other spring designs are also on offer including side load springs and a large range of heavy duty applications. KYB recommends that all coil springs are fitted in pairs, to maintain a balanced ride height on the vehicle.

Coil springs continue to be a strongly growing product range. Modern vehicles have more demands on them than ever before, requiring unusual spring designs, lower weight and higher stress, which in turn means a shorter working life for the coil spring.

The new coil spring catalogue is available to download as a PDF from the KYB Europe website, as well as being listed on major electronic catalogues such as TecDoc. The coil spring catalogue follows the same easy to use layout and design as the shock absorber catalogue.

Better known as a global leader in OE and aftermarket shock absorber manufacturing, KYB also supplies other suspension components including suspension mounting and protection kits. KYB is the world’s largest supplier of shock absorbers to vehicle manufacturers, with more than one in four cars leaving production lines worldwide fitted with KYB as standard.
