Gardner Spring MW0855-010-S Wave Disc Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING MW0855-010-S is a wave disc spring manufactured from Grade 302 stainless steel. Wave disc springs are engineered fastener and assembly components that provide controlled axial load in compact spaces. This spring measures 0.855 inches in outside diameter, 0.65 inches in inside diameter, and 0.06 inches in overall height, with a thickness of 0.01 inches. It delivers a load at deflection of 5.50 pounds and a load at flat of 5.98 pounds. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it well suited to demanding environments. Maintenance technicians, assemblers, and mechanical contractors working with precision hardware typically install this type of component.

Wave disc springs of this type are used in residential and commercial applications where space-constrained axial preloading is required. Common installation scenarios include bearing retention, valve assemblies, pump housings, and threaded fastener preload applications. The compact profile allows integration into tight assemblies where traditional coil springs cannot fit. The inch-measurement system and stainless material make this spring compatible with a broad range of mechanical assembly work in HVAC equipment, plumbing components, and general industrial hardware.

Key Features

• Grade 302 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or harsh environments
• 0.855 inches outside diameter and 0.65 inches inside diameter for compact fitment
• 5.50 pounds load at deflection and 5.98 pounds load at flat for predictable axial force
• Overall height of 0.06 inches with a 0.01 inch thickness for low-profile installations
• Inch measurement system for direct compatibility with standard fastener and bearing specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or component-level addition for mechanical assemblies requiring a wave disc spring with 0.855 inches outside diameter and 0.65 inches inside diameter in the inch measurement system.

Installation Notes

Wave disc springs are typically installed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians as part of bearing, valve, or fastener preload assemblies. Power down or depressurize any system before disassembly. Verify spring orientation and seating against manufacturer assembly drawings before final torque or closure. Do not exceed the design deflection range, as over-compression can permanently deform the spring.
