The CDM-221113 disc spring from Century Spring Corp. features an outer diameter of 0.886 inches and an inner diameter of 0.441 inches. It has a thickness of 0.0492 inches and a height of 0.0689 inches. This spring is designed to handle loads ranging from 166 lbs at 25% height to 600 lbs at 100% height, with corresponding deflections of 0.0050 inches and 0.0199 inches, respectively. The stress values at these loads are 59 x 10^3 psi and 281 x 10^3 psi. The spring is suitable for applications requiring high force in a compact design, making it ideal for use in various mechanical assemblies where space is limited.
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.
