Spring Washers
Spring washers are essential components in fastening applications, designed to provide tension, absorb shock, and prevent loosening due to vibrations or dynamic loads. Unlike flat washers, spring washers exert axial force, maintaining consistent pressure on the assembly and enhancing joint reliability. Available in various types such as Belleville, wave, and split lock washers, these components serve critical roles in industries ranging from aerospace to heavy machinery.
At OneMonroe, we offer a wide selection of high-quality spring washers engineered to meet demanding specifications and industry standards. Our products are available in diverse materials, finishes, and sizes to accommodate different load requirements and environmental conditions. Whether you need corrosion-resistant stainless steel washers or heavy-duty carbon steel options, our team is ready to assist in selecting the right solution for your application.
Spring Washers
- Deflection : The ability of the washer to deform under load and return to its original shape, providing tension in assemblies.
- Finish/Coating : Available in zinc-plated, black oxide, and stainless steel coatings for enhanced corrosion resistance.
- Inner Diameter (ID) : The measurement of the hole in the washer, which determines compatibility with specific bolt or screw sizes.
- Load Capacity : The maximum force the washer can withstand while maintaining its spring characteristics.
- Material : Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, and phosphor bronze, selected based on environmental and strength requirements.
- Outer Diameter (OD) : The overall width of the washer, which affects the distribution of load across the surface.
- Thickness : The thickness of the washer, influencing its deflection rate and load-bearing capacity.
- Type : Includes Belleville washers, wave washers, and split lock washers, each designed for specific load and deflection characteristics.
- Application Use : Used in bolted assemblies to maintain tension, prevent loosening due to vibration, and evenly distribute load.
