Manufactured using spring steel curved wire or coil springs, spring claw fasteners can be used in applications that require resilience.
The degree of spring deflection up to a maximum working load varies between different fasteners; extension spring claws pulled beyond their maximum working load will become rigid and no longer act as a spring.
