We often see in mechanical equipment that some bolted connections use washers, and some bolted connections do not use washers, some bolted connections use flat washers, some use wave spring washers, and some use wave spring washers plus flat washers. Should we use washers in our design? Today, I will share some knowledge about bolted connection […]

Wave spring washers are a new trend in fastening technology. They are used to apply a preload to a fastener, which increases the holding force between the fastener and the parts it is connecting. This makes them ideal for use in applications where vibration or movement is present.   What is a wave spring washer? Wave […]

Multi turn wave springs are the future of coil springs. They are more compact, can handle more loads, and are easier to manufacture than traditional coil springs. They are also more reliable and durable, making them a better choice for a variety of applications.   The benefits of multi turn wave springs over coil springs […]

As technology advances, new methods of shock absorption are being developed. One of the most promising of these is Gap Wave Springs. Gap Wave Springs offer many advantages over traditional shock absorption methods, making them a promising technology of the future. There are many different types of springs, each with their own unique design and […]

The retaining ring is what we often call the circlip. It is used to prevent the movement of parts. It is widely used in the automotive, machinery and other industries. Let’s take a look at the classification of retaining rings.   Flat ring A separable substantially flat washer whose inner or outer portion serves as […]

Spiral retaining rings are widely used in medical equipment, aerospace and other fields. Although these

A wave washer is a washer with only a wave shape. This type of washer is usually composed of a combination of metal and non-metallic materials. Generally, it has the characteristics of low pressing force and good sealing effect.   Wave washers typically have three, four, or six curved lobes, although almost any number will […]

The corrosion of overlap wave spring can be divided into chemical corrosion and electrochemical corrosion according to the type of reaction. If the metal on the surface of the overlap wave spring simply reacts chemically with the surrounding medium, and the overlap wave spring causes corrosion, it is called chemical corrosion. For example, the spring […]
