Curved Disc Spring CRV-24619 from Century Spring Corp. is designed for applications requiring flexibility and light loads, accommodating forces from ounces up to approximately 100 pounds. This spring type offers a uniform spring constant across a wide range of deflection, making it suitable for repeated cycles through motion. The product is available in spring steel, with stainless steel options upon request. It is important to note that while it shares characteristics with conical washers, the load capacity may vary when deflected near a flat position. This spring is ideal for engineers seeking reliable performance in applications with specific load and deflection requirements.
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.
