A series of metric Crest-to-Crest wave springs enable original equipment manufacturers to reduce the size of their assembly by up to 50% while maintaining the same amount of force and deflection as a regular coiled spring. Smalley's metric Crest-to-Crest wave springs minimize assembly cost and total assembly size due to the reduced spring cavity required. Smalley offers more than 3,000 standard wave springs in 17-7 stainless steel or carbon steel. The New Metric Crest-to-Crest series are available in dimensions from 6mm to 60mm.
