Nested, flat-wire wave springs

Nested Spirawave multiple-turn, flat-wire wave springs are coiled in parallel to produce 2x to 3x as much force as traditional single-turn wave springs. Nested Spirawave springs can replace stacks of single-turn springs, eliminating misalignment and inconsistent loading.

A sturdy, tangle-resistant design allows for time-saving, automated handling. Using a single spring and simplified assembly can reduce costs.

Standard nested Spirawave springs are available in diameters from 0.50" to 4.0" or 16mm to 100mm in carbon and stainless steel. Custom parts in carbon steel, stainless steel, or exotic alloys are available from 0.127" to 120" or 4mm to 3,000mm.

The increased forces Nested Spirawave wave springs produce make them suitable for applications that require precision wave springs with high loads, such as heavy-duty bearing preload, connectors, valves, and seals.
