Smalley's Wave Springs are a revolutionary alternative to traditional coil springs. They offer the same spring force in half the working height! This makes it possible to work in tight spaces or reduce the overall size of an application's design. The key difference comes in its flat wire edge-wound design, allowing multiple waves per 'turn' for multiple contact points and increased spring force.
As the inventor of the Wave Spring, Smalley offers over 4000 stock Wave Springs from 5 mm to 400 mm. Find out why engineers in industry-leading companies use Smalley Wave Springs as an integral part of their designs.
