High-Quality 1/2 Inch Spring Washer from China Suppliers | Factory-Direct ANSI Steel Gasket Spring Pad
What are the primary functions of a spring washer?
A spring washer provides excellent anti-loose and anti-seismic effects, helping to secure fastener connections under stress and vibration.
How do the thread and spiral directions of the washer work together?
Typically, the general direction of the thread is right-handed, whereas the spiral direction of the spring washer is left-handed to counteract loosening forces.
How does flattening the spring washer help secure the nut?
After the nut is tightened, the flattening of the washer generates an elastic reaction that continuously compels and exerts force on the screw threads.
Why do fasteners loosen when subjected to bolt vibration?
Vibration subjects the assembly to axial forces, causing elastic deformation in the components. This deformation can create temporary gaps between fasteners, making them prone to loosening.
How does the oblique mouth of a spring washer prevent loosening?
The tip of the spring washer's oblique mouth presses directly against the supporting surface of the bolt or nut and the connected part. This design compensates for instantaneous gaps and effectively prevents loosening.
