Hyperco

What Hyperco does

Hyperco manufactures precision-engineered high-performance suspension springs and related components for motorsports, street performance, and off-road/powersports markets. The company operates as a division of MW Components (formerly MW Industries, Inc.), a portfolio company of private equity firm American Securities since 2017. Founded in 1987 as a distribution business for Rockwell International's racing springs, Hyperco's manufacturing heritage traces to Jim Fielder's pioneering coil-over spring designs developed at Rockwell's Mechanical Spring Division beginning in 1959. Hyperco operates its primary manufacturing and shipping facility in Pontotoc, Mississippi (transferred from Logansport, Indiana in 2014), with its parent headquartered in Charlotte.

The company's core technology is CNC coiling (both cold-wound and hot-wound) combined with dual magnaflux inspection, multi-stage stress relieving, and computerized scale testing that produces springs with a guaranteed 2% rate tolerance against an industry standard of 5%. Products are manufactured from high-tensile chrome silicone steel, with custom raw material runs specified at the mill rather than constrained to stock wire sizes. The catalog spans conventional suspension springs, coil-over springs, bump stop springs, helper/tender springs, dual-rate springs, conical springs, UTV performance spring kits, Hyperformance lift kits, composite leaf springs, hydraulic spring perches, and spring hardware. Hyperco also offers custom spring design services via engineering consultation and supports same-day shipping on most stock orders.

The business model is predominantly B2B/B2C hardware sales through direct e-commerce (hypercoils.com), an authorized global dealer and distributor network, and direct sales for custom and bulk orders (toll-free 800.365.2645, [email protected]). Standard stock parts are unit-priced (e.g., lift spring kits $220-$698) while custom spring work is quoted per application. Hyperco serves professional racing (NASCAR Cup Series exclusive supplier since 2022, IndyCar, IMSA, regional dirt and asphalt series), off-road/powersports, and street performance consumer segments. The brand is reinforced by 56 consecutive Indianapolis 500 wins through 2020, NASCAR Cup NextGen homologation exclusivity, and a lifetime warranty on Hypercoil products.
