Disc springs offer high energy storage

Offering high energy storage capacity, Bissell disc spring range includes standard ranges with pressed and machined edges, locking washers, ball bearing location discs and specials.

Now available from Spirol Industries is the Bissell disc spring range which is one of the most comprehensive available in terms of standard and special ranges, sizes, potential applications and materials. The range includes the renowned former Anaco disc spring range and all products are produced to ISO 9002 and QS9000 certificate. These products now form part of the Spirol range following the acquisition of Bissell earlier this year.

The Bissell disc spring range includes standard ranges with pressed and machined edges, locking washers, ball bearing location discs and specials.

There are design engineering applications throughout the automotive, electrical, machine tool, building and materials handling industries as well as many others.

They can be used for applications such as pre-loading of bearings, clutch spring pressure, shock absorption, safety clutches and static load carrying.

Disc springs offer a number of advantages for the design engineer.

These include their high energy storage capacity, short axial length when installed and the high force they can exert with just a short movement.

They can also be stacked in series or in parallel to suit compounded strength, force or meet other engineering design needs.

Spirol offers all customers a free application design service for both disc springs as well as all the other engineered fastener solutions available, including both standard and specials for customised applications.

Spirol Industries Limited is a leading manufacturer of a diverse line of engineered fasteners, including coiled and slotted spring pins, solid pins, spacers, and other tubular products, as well as threaded inserts, milled brass nuts, shims, pin and insert installation equipment and vibratory parts feeders.
