The smallest wave springs on the market 23 March 2017

As engineers around the world design smaller and smaller assemblies, the question becomes ‘where can you find the compact components to support designs?’ To assist in reducing assembly size, weight and achieve optimum performance within design constraints. 
TFC Ltd says that it is able to supply the answer with the newly expanded Crest-to-Crest Wave Spring Series by Smalley.

The popular C (inches) and CM (metric) ranges now include standard sizes down to 0.188 inches and 5mm in diameter, with special designs available down to 0.157 inches or 4mm in diameter.
Smalley was the originator of the Crest-to-Crest Wave Spring and set the standard when coiling springs as large as 12ft/3.6m in diameter. Over the past decade, Smalley’s production teamhas concentrated on the other end of the scale to enhance their ability to produce smaller and smaller springs. The expanded spring series opens up possibilities for designers in the medical, electronics, computer and robotics industries, where wave springs could not fit before.
