Washers are crucial for the performance and longevity of mechanical assemblies, helping distribute load, prevent loosening, and protect surfaces. The materials used in washers vary, each offering unique benefits for specific applications.
Belleville washers play a crucial role in ensuring secure and long-lasting electrical connections. When installed correctly, they maintain consistent clamping force, reducing the risk of loosening due to thermal expansion, vibration, or material creep. In this guide, we’ll outline the recommended methodology for installing Belleville washers for electrical connections to help electrical contractors maximize performance and reliability.
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.
