Disc Springs in applications

Because of their versatility, disc springs are used extensively in a variety of applications, from safety valve systems 300m under the sea to satellites in space. Disc springs must function in temperatures from -269 C up to 500 C. Mubea stocks the necessary materials to meet the requeired load and fatigue life requirements even under these severe conditions. In addition, disc springs can be coated with high durable surface protections to withstand and guarantee a long life in a corrosive atmosphere.


Due to the versatility of disc springs, they are used in a variety of applications including the machine-tool industry, the oil industry, the automobile industry, as well as the aerospace industry.


Typical applications of disc springs:


boiler suspension systems in power plants

safety valves

clutches (overload and slip clutches)

aerial cable cars

machine tool clamping components

safety brakes for lifts and elevators

brakes for construction and railway vehicles

backlash compensation for ball bearings
