Wave rings, also known as corrugated washers or spring washers, come in a variety of types and designs to meet different application requirements. Here are some common varieties of wave rings:
Single Wave Rings: Single wave rings have a single corrugated or wavy section along their circumference. They are typically used for light-duty applications where a small preload or adjustment is needed. Single wave rings are simple and cost-effective solutions for basic applications.
Double Wave Rings: Double wave rings feature two corrugated or wavy sections along their circumference. They provide a higher preload force and greater adjustment range compared to single wave rings. Double wave rings are commonly used in moderate-duty applications where a more significant preload or compensation is required.
Multiple Wave Rings: Multiple wave rings have more than two corrugated sections along their circumference. These rings provide an even higher preload force and wider adjustment range, suitable for heavy-duty applications. Multiple wave rings can be customized to meet specific preload and spring rate requirements.
Belleville Springs (Disc Springs): While not strictly considered wave rings, Belleville springs (also known as disc springs) are similar in function. They are conical-shaped springs that can be stacked to achieve a desired preload and spring rate. Belleville springs are commonly used in high-load applications where a precise preload and compensation are critical.
Materials: Wave rings can be made from various materials, including steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and plastics. The choice of material depends on the specific application requirements, such as load capacity, corrosion resistance, and temperature range.
Coating and Finishes: Wave rings can be coated or finished to improve their durability, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with other materials. Common coatings and finishes include zinc plating, oil coating, and passivation.
Custom Designs: Wave rings can also be custom-designed to meet specific application requirements. Custom designs can include variations in corrugation pattern, number of waves, material, and coatings. This flexibility allows for precise preload and adjustment capabilities tailored to the needs of a particular application.
In summary, wave rings come in a variety of types, including single, double, and multiple wave rings, as well as Belleville springs. They can be made from different materials, coated or finished for improved durability, and custom-designed to meet specific application requirements. The choice of wave ring depends on the preload, adjustment range, and operating conditions of the application.
