GENERIC MS Spring Washer

A generic MS (mild steel) spring washer is a mechanical component primarily used in fastening applications to provide preload tension and mitigate loosening caused by vibration or thermal expansion. Typically circular in shape with a central hole, it features a convex shape that acts as a spring when compressed between two surfaces. Made from mild steel, these washers offer a balance of strength and ductility, suitable for various industrial and household applications. The spring action of the washer exerts a constant force, ensuring a tight and secure connection between bolts or screws and their mating surfaces. This helps to prevent unintended loosening over time, enhancing the overall stability and reliability of assemblies. MS spring washers are available in a range of sizes to accommodate different bolt diameters and load requirements, providing versatile solutions for fastening needs across industries.
