ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A fuze for an artillery shell to be spun about an axis generally parallel to the direction it is fired in comprises a housing formed with a central axially extending sleeve and with a chamber surrounding the sleeve. The pin is axially slidable in the sleeve and is retained in position by at least one ball. A spring wound in the chamber around the sleeve normally holds the balls in position to lock the sleeve in place and maintain the fuze in an unarmed condi- tion. This spring comprises a steel inner section lying against the sleeve and normally pressing the balls together against the pin, an outer section having a high coefficient of friction and engageable with the inner surface of the spring-containing chamber, and an intermediate section on between the inner and outer sections and having substantially more turns than both of these sections.
