Wave Washers

Wave washers, also known as wave springs or wavy washers, are a type of washer with a wave-like shape that provides spring-like flexibility. They are used to provide a cushioning or spring action in various applications, such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery.

Wave washers are typically made of spring steel or stainless steel and are designed to provide a controlled amount of compression or deflection when installed between two surfaces. They can help compensate for variations in assembly tolerances, reduce vibration and noise, and maintain tension in bolted joints.
