Wave Springs

Wave springs, also known as flat wire compression springs.

Wave springs are generally formed by a flat wire, and the gap between the ring and the ring overlaps with the waves. When subjected to an external load, the springs contract and deform and store its deformation energy, which is a kind of compression springs. Due to its compact size, compared with general compression springs, it requires less installation space and reduces working height. It also has the special functions of reducing noise and vibration, so it is often used to replace spiral compression springs.

The wave springs have the characteristics of changing the rigidity and strength, and the rigidity can be adjusted by changing the height, width, thickness, wave number and other different combinations of the crest. These type of springs are particularly suitable for applications that need to reduce weight and are subject to smaller space constraints. Its applicable fields include aviation, aerospace, precision machinery, high-end motors, hydraulic seals, and so on.
