WAV-25071 is a wave disc spring manufactured by Century Spring Corp. It features an inner diameter of 2.740 inches and an outer diameter of 3.519 inches, with a thickness of 0.234 inches. This spring is designed to handle a maximum load of 101.0 lbs (448.44 N) and has an approximate deflection of 0.116 inches (2.95 mm) when compressed. Wave disc springs are typically utilized in applications where space is limited and a high load is required with minimal movement. They are suitable for use as cushion springs or spacers between components, effectively accommodating variations in assembly. The product is available in spring steel, with stainless steel options available upon request.
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.
