Wave Washer Design

Smalley engineers are available for free design consultations.

Wave washer design.

Ed when radial space is constrained. Wave spring washer video credit. Ideal when required spring or deflection range is small and axial space is limited. Applied in the operation.

If the design of the multi turn wave spring results in peripheral. To model a wave spring washer a sweep surface is first employed to describe the wavy surface. Wave spring washers are especially useful to apply moderate thrust loads when radial space is limited. Design a custom wave spring.

Multiple turn wave springs do not cling to the bore because radial jamming affects the specified load at work height. This is mylife cc by 3 0. And moderate load. A wave washer can have any number of waves from two on up.

Send us your requirements using one of our helpful engineering tools. 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. Our engineers have designed thousands of custom springs across nearly every industry. Many design variations have evolved to best serve these basic functions.

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. Ling analyzing and.
