Hyperco 16x2.5 UHT Barrel Spring

Hyperco 16×2.5 UHT Barrel Spring — Maximum Travel, Responsive Suspension Control

Take your coil-over suspension to the next level with the Hyperco 16×2.5 UHT Barrel Spring — built for racers and performance-driven builders who demand high travel, consistent spring behavior, and durable operation under race conditions.

Key Features

• Ultra High Travel (UHT) design: The 16-inch free length combined with a 2.5-inch internal diameter provides abundant coil-over travel — perfect for absorbing big hits, jumps, bumps, or heavy suspension movement on dirt, pavement, or mixed-surface tracks.

• Barrel-style spring profile: The “barrel” shape (slightly bulged body) gives extra clearance compared to straight springs — reducing the chance of rubbing against strut bodies or hardware under full compression.
• High-tensile chrome-silicone steel: Made from premium spring steel alloy, delivering durability and the ability to handle repeated compression cycles typical of racing and aggressive driving.
• Consistent free-length and installed height: The UHT design maintains spring consistency under load — ensuring repeatable performance whether in a soft-spring big-bar setup or a high-travel coil-over suspension.

Why It Matters

When you’re pushing a race car — be it dirt-oval, short-track, off-road, or pavement — suspension travel and control can make or break performance. The 16×2.5 UHT Barrel Spring delivers significant travel and prevents coil-binding even under aggressive compression. Its barrel shape reduces interference and rubbing that standard springs might suffer when compressed or fully extended. And because it’s built from high-strength spring steel and designed for consistency, you get reliable, repeatable behavior lap after lap.

Whether you’re running a dirt late-model, short-course truck, off-road buggy, or custom coil-over build, this spring ensures your suspension remains compliant over bumps but controlled under heavy cornering or jumps — giving you a balance of traction, stability, and suspension longevity.

Typical Applications

• Dirt-oval or asphalt oval circle-track cars

• Off-road, short-course or stadium-style race trucks

• Custom coil-over builds needing high-travel suspension

• Any vehicle requiring reliable coil-over springs for aggressive racing or suspension work
