Description
Crest-to-Crest® Wave Springs are pre-stacked in series, decreasing the spring rate proportionally to the number of turns. Uses are typically applications requiring low-medium spring rates and large deflections with low-medium forces.
As a replacement for helical compression springs, Crest-to-Crest® springs can develop similar forces, yet occupy 50% or less axial space. This allows for strict space constraints and reduced operating heights, free heights, and solid heights.
Crest-to-Crest® Wave Springs are also available with squared-shim ends. Shim ends provide a 360° contact surface when compared to the wave point contact of plain ends.
Materials: Carbon steel and 17-7 PH/C stainless steel. Alternative materials available on request.
