Spring washers are a subtype of washers that are conical in shape to prevent them from flushing the surface without load. They are designed to provide spring force and absorb shocks by providing axial loads that counteract vibrations. Therefore, spring washers can greatly prevent fasteners from loosening over time. Spring washers play an integral role in assembly applications, eliminating rattling, maintaining assembly tension, absorbing shock loads and providing a controlled response to dynamic loads. These components are ideal for industries involving high vibration machinery, such as electrical, industrial, oil and gas, and valve applications. It is important to note that the deflection rate of the gasket depends on the size and material of the gasket.

How to use spring washers
You can install spring washers just like flat washers. We recommend the following steps to ensure a tight connection:

Place the spring washer under the threaded fastener with the concave side of the washer facing the flange or bearing surface. The convex surface of the washer should be in contact with one or both of the nut and bolt head. When used correctly, spring washers hold nuts or other threaded fasteners in place. To help it achieve this, first place the spring washer under the fastener.
Make sure the washer is flush with the fastener and the other surface to create a tight connection.
Tighten with the appropriate torque for reliable fixing and safe applications. You can do this by turning the wrench or ratchet clockwise. For specific torque values, use our detailed guide detailing how to calculate the torque of tightening bolts.
As a final step, check the washing machine and make sure it is working properly. If the washer does not work properly, loosen the nut or threaded fastener and secure the washer.
