Solon Manufacturing is a leading manufacturer of washer solutions for the automation industry. When production relies on customized parts and components for automated solutions, our products provide a reliable and functional solution to automation processes.
Maintain Bolt Preload
Solon’s Belleville Springs and Washers, when paired with a bolt, stud or nut, provide an optimally tight connection where high spring loads are desired. Our washers reduce bolted joint failures by maintaining the bolt preload. They are particularly useful where vibration, differential thermal expansion, relaxation, bolt creep and bolt yield are problematic. These features benefit industrial automation applications in the following ways:
No deformation or fatigue under normal conditions
Absorbs shock
Compensates for vibration
Predictable load-deflection
Prevent Bolted Joint Failures
Bolted joints fail in the automation industry can fail for a number of reasons:
Overloading leading to yield or fracture of the bolt or joint components
