Materials and Abbreviations
All Wave Springs are made from SAE 1075 Spring Steel, as the default base material. It is hardened by quenching and then tempered to reach Rockwell C hardness of between 46-50. Alternatively we use AISI 301 stainless steel, and can use INCONEL x 750 for environments with high ambient temperatures.
The following abbreviations are used in the Product Tables Below:
- Di : Inner Diameter with no Load
- De : Outer Diameter with no Load
- DLoad : Outer Diameter expansion under Load
- t : Material Thickness
- D is the Mean Diameter and is the average of the diameters: (Di+De divided by 2)
- b is the Radial width of the washer
- L0 is the unloaded free height of the wave spring
- WPL is the travel to Preload (s is also used) or deflection - the difference between, L0, material thickness and HPL
- HPL, is the Nominal Height of the Wave Spring at Preload
- LoadPL, is the Load at the Preload Setting
- σPL - Stress Induced at Preload
- WTobs is the working deflection/travel to Load, the difference between, L0, t and HL
- HL is the Nominal Height of the Wave Spring at maximum design load
- Pobs and Pder - Testing Observed Load vs Theoretical
- σL - Stress Induced at Design Load
- k is the Spring Rate - derived from 1st Principles and by definition
- We finish off with Fatigue Data, Ratio and Life measured in cycles
