Gardner Spring MW1351-015 Wave Disc Spring Steel

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING MW1351-015 is a wave disc spring manufactured from 1074-grade steel for use in mechanical assemblies requiring controlled axial load and deflection in a compact form factor. It measures 1.351 inches in outside diameter, 1.051 inches in inside diameter, and 0.099 inches in overall height, with a material thickness of 0.015 inches. The spring delivers 18 pounds of load at deflection and 12.8 pounds of load at flat, making it suited for applications where precise, repeatable spring force is required within tight dimensional envelopes. Mechanical engineers, maintenance technicians, and OEM assembly personnel are the primary installers.

Wave disc springs are commonly used in bearing preload applications, gearboxes, pumps, valves, and precision mechanical assemblies across industrial, hydraulic, and HVAC equipment. This spring is appropriate for residential and commercial equipment where axial space is limited and a consistent clamping or cushioning load is needed. The inch-system dimensions make it a direct fit for standard imperial-spec assemblies. Package quantity is 25 pieces per unit, with a minimum order quantity of 1 package.

Key Features

• 1074-grade steel construction for reliable load performance in mechanical assemblies
• 18 lb load at deflection and 12.8 lb load at flat for predictable spring behavior
• Compact 0.099 inch overall height suits tight axial clearance applications
• 1.351 inch OD and 1.051 inch ID sized to imperial-standard shaft and bore fits
• 0.015 inch material thickness provides consistent wave geometry and fatigue resistance
• Packaged in quantities of 25 for maintenance stock or OEM line use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service component for inch-system mechanical assemblies requiring a wave disc spring with 1.351 inch OD, 1.051 inch ID, and 0.099 inch overall height in 1074-grade steel.

Installation Notes

Wave disc springs are installed by mechanical technicians and assembly personnel. De-energize and depressurize the host assembly before disassembly. Verify shaft and bore dimensions match the spring ID and OD before installation to ensure proper seating and load transfer. Do not stack wave disc springs or substitute them for Belleville-style disc springs without confirming the load curve meets the application requirement.
