disc spring features

Compared to standard oil springs, the disc spring has a number of advantageous properties: 

• Space saving - high spring forces with small deflection
• Load/deflection curves of straight, regressive or progressive character according to design requirements
• Spring stack characteristics can be altered by the simple removal or addition of individual spring 
• Largely self-damping particularly with parallel stacking, giving good shock absorption and energy dissipation
• No permanent deformation or fatigue under normal loads
• Long service life
