Wave Spring Washer for Bearings…

These types of Wave Spring Washers are particularly useful for the pre-loading of bearings, for example, in electric motors. The Washers are installed within the bearing housing and operate by maintaining a force on the outer face of the bearing. This ensures a smooth and quiet running of the motor which helps extend the life of the bearing.

We offer EPL Wave Washers from stock, available for same day shipping.

Carriage paid on orders over £75 Net (UK only)

Cotter Pins, Split, DIN 94


A Split Cotter Pin is a simple fastening device to prevent parts being released off the end of a shaft. Alternatively, they can be very useful to prevent nuts coming undone off a threaded fastener by simply drilling through nut and bolt. The o/d of the pin is made marginally smaller than the hole size to give easy fit. Once inserted the legs are bent over in opposite directions to complete the fastening.
