General Purpose Washers For Various Industries & Applications

Multi-Purpose Belleville Washers

Belleville washers subjected to high-temperature bolt yield, vibration, differential thermal expansion, and packing or gasket relaxation can lead to bolted joint failures. This compromises worker safety and can cause catastrophic equipment failure. Solon Manufacturing, Inc. is a premier designer and manufacturer of Belleville springs and additional washers for general purpose industrial fastener applications. Our ISO 9001:2015-certified washers are designed to maintain tight, leak-free joints and ensure optimal performance in industrial applications. We source high-quality materials to withstand challenging environments, increase the elasticity of the bolting system and reduce fugitive emissions in critical applications. We can fill high-volume orders with quick turnaround times.

Solon General Purpose Washer Advantages

Our washers are particularly useful where vibrationdifferential thermal expansionrelaxation and bolt creep, and bolt yield are problematic and can lead to bolted joint failures.

Solon Manufacturing’s Belleville springs and washers deflect at a given rate to reduce bolted joint failures by maintaining bolt preload in industrial bolting applications. Our springs produce large loads in small spaces and can reduce preload by a factor of five times or more. Solon's metric and imperial spring washer solutions have a durable yet versatile design for use in industrial applications ranging from stabilizing camera equipment to maintaining bold preload in heavy-duty machinery. Solon washers maintain tight seals to reduce fugitive emissions and help prevent equipment failure.

General Purpose Washer Product Offering

Our Belleville springs and washer can be used in virtually any application that maintains bolted preloads. Solon offers thousands of catalog washer options—sizes ranging from #4 screw to 4 inches—available in both Imperial and metric sizes. With industry-standard and exotic material options. Application-specific product groups include:

General-Purpose Belleville Washer & Bolt Solutions

Belleville springs and washers from Solon Manufacturing Co. are highly configurable and designed for compatibility in a range of general-purpose bolting applications. We manufacture ISO 9001:2015-certified general purpose washers to the most rigorous industry standards to improve performance and worker safety in bolting applications.

Washers for Packaging Operations

Vibration stress can loosen bolted connections and cause equipment failure in packaging applications. We have multiple options of Packaging washers for Plastic, Thermoforming, Blister Packaging and Food & Beverage packaging.

Washers For Automation Applications

Our general purpose washers prevent deformation or fatigue under normal operating conditions, absorb shock and compensate for vibration Industrial Automation processes. Solon washers offer predictable load-deflection curves where straight, progressive or regressive characteristics are required in robotics and other uses.

Machine Operation

We understand the imperative to form tight, secure connections in machine operations. Our Belleville springs and washers reduce vibration that leads to loss of bolt tension and absorbs shock for smoother operation in virtually any machine application.

Washers For Heavy Equipment

Moving parts are subject to mechanical stress. Our general purpose bolts and washers minimize these stresses by reducing shock and vibration. General purpose washers can be used to form more secure connections with hand tools in construction operations while also holding up to heavy-duty equipment and machinery. Our washers can be used in Bulldozers, Earthmovers, Front-End Loaders, Hydraulic Punch Presses and most heavy-duty machinery.

Manufacturing Washers

Our washers maintain bolt preload to prevent loosening and subsequent bolt failure to withstand the day-to-day rigors of production and manufacturing process design. Manufacturing washers are designed for use with bolts, studs, nuts, gaskets and other hardware. Specific uses include:
  • Factory maintenance
  • Retrofit / reconditioning
  • Material handling
  • Textiles
  • Furniture
  • Chemicals
  • Tires
  • Steel mills
  • Fabricated metal products
