Using a spring for preload is critical for high-precision or high-speed applications, as it essentially eliminates the need for holding tighter tolerances and helps withstand high operating speeds.

Benefits
โœ” Axial and radial play control
Ball complement and bearing races mate reliably and take up dimensional variation.
โœ” Less wear on bearing
Greater load sharing between bearings due to wave design.
โœ” Vibration and noise reduction
Quieter assemblies, even in high-vibration applications.
โœ” Eliminate ball skidding
Constant force is applied for smooth movement.
โœ” Precise shaft positioning
Wave spring keeps shaft centred for optimal centrifugal distribution.

Every application is unique, making selecting the proper wave spring important.

Itโ€™s essential to consider overall tolerances, as placing too much preload on the bearing can reduce longevity, while too little can cause higher noise output in high-vibration systems.

We have over 300+ standard parts available in carbon steel and stainless steel to match popular bearing sizes. Find your size by checking out the bearing cross-reference table.

If youโ€™re looking for higher force applications, a Nested spring is another type of spring we offer that can accommodate higher preload requirements.
