With a 0.5 inch outer diameter, a 0.255 inch inner diameter, and an overall assembled height of 0.036 inches, this conical washer-style spring stores and releases energy under controlled axial compression. Rated at 1,167 pounds load at full deflection of 0.031 inches, it provides a high spring rate relative to its small form factor. The steel construction suits it for industrial fastening and precision mechanical assemblies where consistent clamp force or vibration resistance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis disc spring is used in applications where a standard flat washer cannot maintain adequate clamping load over time, including bolted joint assemblies, valve stacks, bearing preload arrangements, and precision hardware subject to vibration or thermal cycling. The 1\/4 inch bolt size compatibility makes it a practical choice for light-duty mechanical assemblies across manufacturing, equipment maintenance, and trade service applications. It is typically specified by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and equipment service professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh load capacity of 1,167 pounds at 0.031 inches deflection in a compact 0.5 inch OD profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in mechanical fastening environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 1\/4 inch bolt size fastening arrangements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.036 inch overall assembled height for space-constrained stack configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCan be stacked in series or parallel to tune load and deflection characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/4 inch bolt size fastener assemblies.

Before servicing any assembly containing disc springs, de-energize or depressurize the equipment per the manufacturer service procedure. When stacking multiple springs, orientation relative to load direction determines whether springs act in series or parallel. Do not exceed the rated deflection, as flattening the spring beyond design limits can cause permanent set or failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Diameter (OD)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner Diameter (ID)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.255 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Assembled Height (OAH)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.036 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad at Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,167 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolt Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GARDNER SPRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MB0500-022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52021436776754,"sku":"MB0500-022","price":20.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3ce280a0510b85a74072b39c8b3e8510.jpg?v=1790012515","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-mb0500-022-belleville-disc-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
