Can anyone tell me which grade of Fe should be useful for Handle spring (Dolly Spring) in MCB manufacturing. Basically I am looking for grade of Fe material for making spring.
There are possible issues with slow corrosion and creep. Some types of spring steel might be suitably resistant; also beryllium copper might be a candidate material.
kvsridhar is one of CR4's most experienced members in this area; perhaps he will see this thread and assist.

You have rightly pointed out as "There are possible issues with slow corrosion and creep."
I can mention that the SPRINGS THAT ARE USED - WILL LOOSE ITS SPRING CHARACTER i.e. STIFFNESS/SPRING EFFECT and DESIRED STIFFNESS IS LOST owing to EXPOSED CONDITION TO HEAT INSIDE THE PANEL/MCB, and the Spring becomes so HARD, and it acts as solid - which leads to a condtion of NO-SPRING at all.
We recd. an advise from the Manufacturer to replace the Spring Every Year, which even to-day we are following.
It is possible that Mr. kvsridhar may miss to see this link. I suggest that this link can be posted to him through CR4 PERSONAL MESSAGING. Now how to find the Membership is to be searched in the " SHOW MEMBERS" and locate and post there.
Pl. inform how to straight away to locate a Member, by cr4 personal messaging to me.
Which brand of MCB are you planning to counterfeit?
Just so I know what to avoid.
If this seems unduly harsh I would point out that a reputable manufacturer would have the information in house. They would not be asking a group of random guys on the internet.
