The springs are made by "British Spring" in the UK. But what they do not
tell you is that the actual metal used by British Spring company is made
in China, assembled by British Spring in the UK.
Peel off the UK sticker and read the chinese writting stamped on the
steel spring leafs.
I do not know how the 1/2 leafs are but the 1/4s are way over sprung.
