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.
