Is it possible to cast spring steel and get a usable spring? What about sintering or MIM to produce complex leaf springs? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/69.41.40.24|69.41.40.24]] ([[User talk:69.41.40.24|talk]]) 15:46, 19 April 2011 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

The article summary says that the critical ingrediant is silicon, yet in the table of common spring steels listed, I find other metals, and then sulfer, but no mention of silicon. Is this a mistake? If it's not a mistake, then the article is not self consistent.

Moved from article

does this involve inetrstitial bonding - that is the question and with what element??? —This unsigned comment was added by 216.132.2.226 (talkcontribs) .

Applications

Piano wire, lockpicks and stage swords? All that steel-making technology just for this?

I'm surprised spring steel isn't used for, say, springs? Doh. 24.85.143.66 (talk) 05:58, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
