Smalley's Nested Spirawave® Springs are flat wire wave springs with multiple turns, coiled in parallel to produce higher forces. Nested springs can be used to replace stacks of single-turn wave springs which in turn reduces misalignment, counting errors, and simplifies installation and removal. These springs are the perfect solution for applications like heavy-duty bearing pre-load, that require high forces in tight radial and axial spaces.
