Wave washer design.

Ling analyzing and. Smalley engineers are available for free design consultations. Wave spring washers are especially useful to apply moderate thrust loads when radial space is limited. However factors such as spring index the amount of deflection required and the load determine the number to be used in the ultimate design.

If the design of the multi turn wave spring results in peripheral. Send us your requirements using one of our helpful engineering tools. Design a custom wave spring. Wave washers also referred to as wave springs are wavy metal washers designed to provide a compensating spring force or absorb shock when under load.

Three wave washers provides greater load bearing capacity than a single wave washer but has a smaller deflection range. A nested wave spring provides a higher load than a single turn wave spring a stamped wave washer and uses the same radial space as a single turn design. And moderate load. Applied in the operation.

Ideal when required spring or deflection range is small and axial space is limited. This is mylife cc by 3 0. Many design variations have evolved to best serve these basic functions. Multiple turn wave springs do not cling to the bore because radial jamming affects the specified load at work height.

Ed when radial space is constrained. Looking for a custom application specific wave spring.
