Bolted joints can fail due to preload loss, vibration, thermal expansion, and material creep. This article explains the most common causes of failure and how solutions like Belleville washers help maintain tension, improve reliability, and extend the life of critical assemblies.
Our material selection will accommodate working temperatures from -400 deg. F to 1100 deg. F, various corrosive environments and magnetism requirements.
Our Flange Washer line adds deflection to bolted joints, in order to dramatically reduce the effects of large fluctuations in temperature within the application.
Governed by the specifications outlined in the European DIN EN 16984/16983 (formerly DIN 2092/2093), they are engineered and manufactured to perform as needed in the most arduous dynamically loaded spring applications.
