The CDM-231210 disc spring from Century Spring Corp. features an outer diameter of 0.906 inches and an inner diameter of 0.480 inches. It has a thickness of 0.0394 inches and a height of 0.0630 inches. This disc spring is designed to handle loads of up to 113 lbs with a deflection of 0.0060 inches at that load. At 25% of its height, it can support a load of 208 lbs with a deflection of 0.0119 inches, and at 50% height, it can handle 124 lbs with a deflection of 0.0179 inches. The stress values at these loads are 65 x 10^3 psi at 113 lbs, 124 x 10^3 psi at 208 lbs, and 176 x 10^3 psi at 290 lbs. This product is suitable for applications requiring high force in a compact design, making it ideal for various engineering projects.
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.
