Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, established in 1998, is a professional manufacturer specializing in precision metal components. Our 316 Stainless Steel Crest-to-Crest Wave Spring (8mm ID, 15mm OD, 1.5mm Free Height) is engineered to deliver reliable axial force in compact spaces. With over two decades of export experience and annual export value of US$5-10 million, we serve global markets including North America, Europe, and Asia. This wave spring offers excellent corrosion resistance and consistent performance, making it ideal for demanding applications.
Product Overview
This crest-to-crest wave spring is designed as a single-turn, pre-stressed washer that provides a spring force in a limited axial space. Unlike traditional coil springs, it requires less installation height, reduces part count, and simplifies assembly. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, it offers superior resistance to chlorides, acids, and harsh environments. The free height of 1.5mm ensures a low profile while maintaining excellent load capacity.
Key Features & Benefits
- Space-Saving Design: The crest-to-crest configuration reduces the required axial space by up to 50% compared to traditional coil springs, enabling compact product designs.
- High Corrosion Resistance: 316 stainless steel includes molybdenum, providing excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in marine and chemical environments.
- Consistent Force: Precision manufacturing ensures uniform wave height and load distribution, allowing predictable performance over many cycles.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: Suitable for temperatures from -200°C to 800°C (depending on environmental conditions), making it versatile for various industrial uses.
- Low Stress Relaxation: The material and design minimize stress relaxation, maintaining spring force over extended periods.
- No Interlocking: The crest-to-crest pattern prevents adjacent springs from tangling, simplifying handling and installation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the difference between a crest-to-crest wave spring and a conventional wave spring?
A: Crest-to-crest wave springs have waves that touch at the crests, forming a continuous ring. This design provides a more uniform load distribution and reduces the risk of interlocking compared to traditional wave springs. -
Q: Can the free height be customized?
A: Yes, we offer customization of free height, wire diameter, number of waves, and overall dimensions. Please specify your requirements for a tailored solution. -
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for this 316 stainless steel wave spring?
A: 316 stainless steel can withstand temperatures up to 800°C in a non-corrosive atmosphere. However, in corrosive environments, the practical limit may be lower. Consult our technical team for specific conditions. -
Q: Do you offer surface treatments like passivation or electropolishing?
A: Yes, we can provide passivation, electropolishing, or other finishes to enhance corrosion resistance and surface cleanliness. These options are available upon request. -
Q: How is the load capacity determined?
A: The load capacity depends on the wave spring's geometry (wire diameter, number of waves, free height) and material properties. We can calculate the load-deflection curve for your specific application. -
Q: What packaging options are available for export?
A: We pack wave springs in anti-static bags, plastic boxes, or bulk packaging according to customer preferences. Standard export packaging includes cartons and pallets to ensure safe transit. -
Q: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, samples are available for evaluation. Please contact our sales team with your requirements, and we will provide a quotation and lead time. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for custom orders?
A: Lead time depends on order quantity and complexity. Standard orders typically ship within 7-15 working days, while custom designs may require 15-30 working days.
