Do you know the Difference Between Disc Springs and Belleville Washers?
Disc Springs and Belleville Washers are both conically shaped spring washers typically made from spring steels and designed to be loaded axially. While similar in apperance, they are used for different applications.
Disc Springs are commonly used in vehicle braking systems, valves, shock absorbers, clutches, friction assemblies, and pressure controls and regulators, etc. Belleville Washers are primarily used in heavy duty applications fastened together with a bolt where the load is considered static.
