Half hook, o = 0.55 to 0.8 D 2

Usually: d 6.3 mm, D >= 3.15 mm, i >= 9

Full loop, o = 0.8 to 1.1 D 2

Used generally

Full loop on side, o D 2

When moving the force out of spring axis does not matter

Full loop inside, o = 1.05 to 1.2 D 2

Usually: d = 10 mm, i >= 7

Raised hook, o = 1.2 D 2 to 30 d

Usually for: d = 0.5mm to 4 mm, o 100 mm

Double twisted full loop, o D

Used generally

Double twisted full loop on side, o D 2
