Ball Bearing Spring Washers
Ball bearing disc springs or ball bearing washers are designed for use with radial ball bearings as a retaining spring and are used to reduce vibration and shaft deflection. When used effectively, these disc springs reduce running noise and minimize excessive wear.

Disc Spring Configurations
BB Series
BB (Ball Bearing) Series Disc Springs are specially designed as preloading springs for use with radial ball bearings. These disc springs help to maintain positioning accuracy of the bearing with no endplay. They also minimize vibration and shaft deflection. Proper preloading will increase bearing rigidity and eliminate excessive running noise.
AK Series
AK (Ball Bearing) Series Disc Springs are specially designed as preloading springs for use with radial ball bearings. These disc springs help to maintain positioning accuracy of the bearing with no endplay. They also minimize vibration and shaft deflection. Proper preloading will increase bearing rigidity and eliminate excessive running noise.
