Wave Spring Washers
Stock sizes in high-carbon and stainless steels
Wave spring washers are usually used in thrust-loading applications
for small deflections, particularly where radial space is limited. A
typical example is the axial loading of ball bearings. The spring rate
is approximately linear between 20% and 80% of available deflection.

Finishes
Washers are carried in stock in plain finish suitable for various types
of finishes - either electroplated or mechanically plated, a process
which reduces the possibility of hydrogen embrittlement. Recommendations
for specific applications will be made on request. |
