Commercial Bolting Applications For Belleville Spring Washers

Bulk Belleville Spring Washers For the Commercial Industry

Belleville spring washers are conical shaped discs that are designed to deflect at a given rate and produce large loads in a very small space. Belleville springs maintain bolt preload by preventing bolt tension loss caused by vibration, relaxation, thermal expansion, and high-temperature yield.

Solon’s industrial spring washer solutions can be used in single or stacked variation, depending on the load and level of deflection your application requires. Our industrial spring washers are used in various commercial bolting applications, including packaging, heavy equipment, manufacturing, medical, pulp and paper, aerospace, and transportation. Solon’s ISO 9001:2015-certified washers are designed to maintain tight, leak-free joints and ensure optimal performance in commercial applications. We can fill high-volume orders of imperial or metric size washers with quick turnaround times.

Aerospace Washers

We provide aerospace spring washer solutions for CATTO propellors and additional equipment in materials and finishes that meet stringent aerospace specifications. Washers maintain bolt load and torque in demanding applications.

Manufacturing Washers

Our washers maintain bolt preload to prevent loosening and subsequent bolt failure to withstand the day-to-day rigors of production and manufacturing process design. Manufacturing washers are designed for use with bolts, studs, nuts, gaskets and other hardware. Specific uses include:

Factory maintenance
Retrofit / reconditioning
Material handling
Textiles
Furniture
Chemicals
Tires
Steel mills
Fabricated metal products

Commercial Transportation Equipment Washers

Vibration, bolt stretch and fatigue failure on heavy axle load/high traffic can lead to joint loosening and frequent maintenance in transportation equipment. Applications include Ski lifts, Motorcycles, High-performance racecars and Railroad equipment. (Tracks, Joints, Frog crossings,Turnouts).

Pulp & Paper Applications

Use Belleville springs and washers to reduce mechanical stress and maintain bolt preload on processing equipment throughout your facility.

Medical Equipment Washer Solutions

Vibration can damage sensitive medical equipment and machinery. We offer several spring washer solutions to help protect equipment by keeping your bolted connections secure in Moveable medical equipment, X-ray machines and Hospital equipment.
