The CRV-24455 Curved Disc Spring from Century Spring Corp. is designed for applications requiring flexibility and light loads, capable of handling forces from ounces up to approximately 100 pounds. This spring exhibits a uniform spring constant over a wide range of deflection, making it suitable for repeated cycles through various motions. The dimensions of the CRV-24455 include an outer diameter of 2.13 inches, an inner diameter of 0.130 inches, and a thickness of 0.035 inches. It is manufactured from spring steel, with availability in stainless steel upon request. The calculated load at the approximate deflection of 0.008 inches is 3.3 pounds (14.65 N). This product is ideal for engineers seeking reliable performance in applications that require consistent spring characteristics.
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.
