Serrated Disc Spring CCS020 from Century Spring Corp. features a trapezoidal cross-section with serrations on both sides, designed to provide a locking effect that enhances resistance to loosening under load. With an outer diameter of 0.827 inches and an inner diameter of 1.181 inches, this spring is suitable for use with various screw and bolt sizes, particularly pan head and hexagon socket head cap screws. The spring is made from spring steel and is available in a corrosion-resistant variant. It is designed to minimize stock requirements while offering universal applications, making it a practical choice for engineers looking for reliable safety washers to maintain pre-load in bolted connections.
A disc spring (sometimes called a "Belleville washer" after the inventor) consists primarily of a convex disc supported at the outer periphery by one force and an opposing force on the center of the disc. Disc springs are used singly, or in stacks, to achieve a desired load and travel. The advantage of a disc spring is that it generates high force in a very short spring length and with minimal movement when compressed. All Century Spring disc springs are subject to exacting manufacturing and quality control standards. All discs are preset so that they will not significantly relax under load over time. Century Spring also offers pre-stressed disc springs specifically sized for use with bolts.
