Technical description

The Ondufil nested wave springs are a type of multi turn wave springs with parallel stacking. They are made of flat wire coiled in parallel, forming a continuous coil of layers. Their load and spring rate characteristics are proportional to their number of turns. The more turns they have, the higher their spring rate and load capacities will be.

This single-part solution is an excellent replacement to single turn wave springs and Belleville disc springs. They produce higher loads than single turn wave springs are capable of while taking less radial space than Belleville disc springs. In addition, they provide more consistent and accurate forces and make assembly simpler and quicker, without any of the complications caused by the stacking of multiple parts (binding, misalignments, uneven loads…).

They can withstand very high loads
They fit in tight radial and axial spaces
They prevent misalignments and uneven loading issues
They are a tangle-resistant and sturdy solution
They are a time and cost-saving choice
They are ideal for automated handling

Nested wave springs are a trusted solution for many cases of applications, especially heavy-duty ones. They are often used for the preloading of ball bearings with very high loads to limit vibration and noise issues within assemblies. They can be found in bayonet connectors as well turbines in the aerospace sector.
