.jpg) | Twisted Tooth Lock Washers ITW Shakeproof is the largest, most diverse and uniquely tooled producer of tooth lockwashers in the world. These time proven washers are the finest anti-vibration, anti-loosening mechanical fastening devices available. Available in wide range of sizes to fit all standard screw diameters, economical tooth washers stand up to high torques and heavy loads. The twisted teeth compress as torque is applied when fastening. A strong spring reaction is set up as the teeth seek to return to their fully twisted position. These unique teeth contribute greatly to the integrity of a joint assembly. The powerful spring reaction of the teeth work to maintain fastening tension. The teeth also react instantly to any loosening force, setting up a strut action that is in direct opposition to the loosening rotation of the fastener. The flexed teeth of the washer absorbs shock and vibration, while the spring reaction of the teeth work to absorb high torque and prevent slipping. | ||

.jpg) | Wave Washers Spring washers or wave washers are specifically designed to provide a compensating spring force and sustain a load or absorb shock. Many design variations have evolved to best serve these basic functions. Spring washers are typically used in applications where assemblies need a part to take up play, eliminate rattle, maintain assembly tension, compensate for expansion or contraction in materials after assembly, or to absorb intermittent shock loads and provide a controlled reaction under dynamic loads. Load and deflection are the key performance characteristics of a spring washer. Design considerations to control load and deflection are typically O.D. or bearing surface, free height and material thickness. Formulas and calculations are available to assist in choosing the right spring washer for your design. A variety of design styles are available as standards. Dimensional variations to these standards are also readily provided. | ||
