Disc springs now offered in stainless steel versions
Spirol Industries has expanded its range of disc springs with the addition of new stainless steel versions. Although stainless steel is not part of the DIN 2093 standard, all the disc springs produced by Spirol are controlled to that exacting level.
Two types of stainless steel disc springs are now available. The new austenitic stainless steel version, X10CrNi18-8 (1.4310), is ideal for low cycle applications and is available as a standard product. For high cycle applications, Spirol now also offers to special customer order the precipitation hardened X7CrNiAl17-7 (1.4568) Disc Spring. Both have excellent corrosion resistance.
Disc Springs are conically-shaped, washer-type components designed to be axially loaded. They can be continuously or intermittently statically loaded as well as dynamically subjected to continuous load cycling. They can be used singularly or in multiples - stacked parallel, in series or in combination.
