Enhancing Pipe Support Reliability with Belleville Washers
Case Study Download
Industry Challenges
Pipe supports are critical for maintaining structural integrity and thermal performance, especially in high-demand enviroments like:
- LNG
- Cryogenics
- Power generation
Solution
Solon’s Belleville Washers provide consistent clamping force by maintaining preload during temperature changes. By stacking and configuring Solon’s Belleville Washers, we fine-tune the applied force, delivering stability and consistent performance. Optimized stack designs help minimize space, cost, and assembly time. In one recent case, Solon was able to reduce the number of springs needed by 60% while improving performance.
What sets Solon’s Belleville Washers apart in cryogenic pipe supports is their ability to sustain preload under fluctuating temperatures and mechanical strain, improving reliability and preventing failure in critical applications.
