Rotor Clip Producing Wave Springs

Rotor Clip Company Inc. is using its experience in processing and coiling wire to manufacture single-turn and multi-turn wave springs.

A wave spring is coiled flat wire with waves added to give it a spring effect for certain applications with lower work heights with the same force. With less materials it lowers production costs. Wave springs can act as load bearing devices – compensating for accumulated tolerances in assemblies and providing end-play take-up. Wave springs exert a force, or preload on assemblies made to the low side of the tolerances snugging everything up. On the other end, they also give when parts are made to the high side of tolerances.

Rotor Clip manufactures retaining rings, snap rings, spiral retaining rings, wave springs and constant tension band hose clamps. ©2009 GlobalFastenerNews.com
