| Company | State | Mentions |
|---|---|---|
| Hendrickson (springs business within Hendrickson Holdings LLC) | Indiana | 1 of 15 |

The five questions we asked
Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.
- 1“Best suppliers of industrial springs in Illinois”
- 2“Who supplies custom high-cycle compression springs in Illinois”
- 3“I need a Illinois spring manufacturer for a 100,000-piece industrial valve spring run, who should I talk to”
- 4“Top industrial spring suppliers in Illinois for OEM engineering buyers”
- 5“Which Illinois spring manufacturers can produce aerospace-grade springs to MIL-spec requirements”
- 6“List 20 industrial springs companies in Illinois with their specialties.”the roster question
Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
