Value Collection SW7BX1600-050BX Wave Disc Spring M16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SW7BX1600-050BX is a wave disc spring made from 18-8 stainless steel, designed to deliver consistent axial load and deflection in compact assemblies. With a 30 mm outside diameter, 17 mm inside diameter, and 7 mm overall height, this spring fits M16 screw applications where space is limited and corrosion resistance is required. The 1.60 mm material thickness provides the spring rate appropriate for wave-style disc applications. Machinists, MRO technicians, and mechanical assemblers typically install these in bearing preload, vibration dampening, and precision fastening assemblies.

Wave disc springs are used in both light industrial and precision mechanical applications where controlled deflection is needed in a thin axial envelope. This metric-dimensioned spring targets M16 fastener installations and is suited for environments where moisture or mild chemical exposure makes stainless steel preferable to carbon steel alternatives. Typical install scenarios include bearing housings, valve assemblies, and bolted joint stacks requiring consistent load distribution.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments
• Wave disc profile delivers multi-wave load distribution across the spring face
• Metric dimensioning: 30 mm OD, 17 mm ID, 7 mm overall height
• 1.60 mm material thickness for consistent spring rate
• Sized for M16 screw applications
• Sold in minimum order quantity of 5 units

Compatibility

Designed as a metric wave disc spring for M16 fastener applications requiring a 30 mm outside diameter seating surface.

Installation Notes

Wave disc springs are installed by mechanical assemblers and MRO technicians as part of bolted joint or bearing preload stacks. Ensure the spring is oriented correctly per assembly drawings, as wave disc springs can be stacked in series or parallel to alter load and deflection characteristics. Degrease mating surfaces before installation to prevent slippage under load. Follow applicable machinery or equipment manufacturer torque specifications for the associated fastener.
