Bolted joints often face stress concentration issues, especially in materials like copper or aluminum alloys, which can lead to deformation. Solon® Belleville Springs address these challenges by evenly distributing stress, reducing deformation risks, and ensuring consistent electrical performance. Finite element analysis shows that Belleville Springs expand the stress distribution area, maintaining low electrical resistance at critical interfaces and improving joint reliability. Additionally, they counteract differential thermal expansion (DTE), enhancing overall performance and longevity.

Fill out the form to download the technical white paper, Belleville Springs Distribute Load to Improve Performance and Reliability, co-authored by Solon Manufacturing Co.'s President, Chief Engineer, and Owner, George Davet, BSME, MBA, and Peter LeMay, Product Engineer, to learn how Belleville Springs can optimize bolted joint performance, improve reliability, and address challenges such as thermal expansion.
