It is critical to know the working temp of equipment. Ex: Belleville washers in cryogenic applications are made from materials designed to withstand temps of -238°F (-150°C) to absolute zero. #BelleFlex #Belleville #BellevilleSpring #BellevilleWasher #FlangeWasher #DiscSpring
A: Every metal has a “working temperature” range, or the maximum and minimum temperatures at which it will continue to function properly in the working environment. #BelleFlex #Belleville #BellevilleSpring #BellevilleWasher #FlangeWasher #DiscSpring

A: All joints move during operation due to gasket creep, differential thermal expansion, vibration, embedment, & relaxation. Adding a single or series of Belleville washers can offset these effects. #BelleFlex #BellevilleSpring #BellevilleWasher #FlangeWasher #DiscSpring

Belleville washers can offset these factors to protect bolt integrity and ensure that bolted joints remain tight. #BelleFlex #Belleville #BellevilleSpring #BellevilleWasher #FlangeWasher #DiscSpring
Q: Why does a bolt loosen? A: After preloading, a bolt almost always loosens and multiple factors are at play: temp, vibration, bolt relaxation, incorrect tightening, gasket creep.
