Waspaloy Spring washers distribute clamp load over a wider bearing area, prevent surface damage, and accommodate bolt-hole oversize. TorqBolt manufactures Waspaloy Spring washers per ASME B18.21.1 / B18.22.1, DIN 125 / 126 / 127 / 9021, and ISO 7089 / 7090 / 7093 / 7094, in metric (M3–M100) and imperial (#4–4") sizes.
Waspaloy Spring plain washers are characterized by three critical dimensions: ID (clearance over bolt diameter), OD (load distribution area), and thickness (compressive stiffness). Standard tolerances are h13 on OD and H13 on ID per ISO 286-2; flatness 0.05 mm/100 mm and parallelism 0.05 mm/100 mm verified per lot. Edge break / chamfer per drawing.
Waspaloy Spring washers are hardness-controlled to balance load-distribution stiffness against surface damage to mating parts. Typical Vickers HV ranges: plain 140–180 HV; spring 380–440 HV; Belleville 460–540 HV. Surface finish Ra 1.6 µm or better; on critical sealing applications, Ra 0.8 µm available.
TorqBolt produces Waspaloy Spring washers in square (DIN 436), fender (oversized OD), tab / lock-tang (DIN 462 / 463), and spherical seat washer + cup combinations. EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 material certificates standard; NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 on request.
TorqBolt manufactures specialty fasteners across the full range of corrosion-resistant alloys (CRAs), high-temperature superalloys, and engineered metallurgies required by the process industries. Beyond the high-volume Inconel, Hastelloy, Duplex, and stainless grades, our supply chain covers a long tail of specification-driven alloys for unique service envelopes — sour wells, extreme cryogenics, pharmaceutical-grade purity, oxidizing acids, chlorinated solvents, and high-temperature cyclic-load fasteners.
Each specialty alloy is sourced from approved mills with full melt traceability through a closed forging route. Heat-treat condition, mechanical properties, and corrosion testing are controlled to the customer's drawing or governing specification — whether ASTM, ASME, AMS, MIL, NORSOK, NACE, or proprietary end-user codes. EN 10204 3.1 (mill cert) or 3.2 (third-party witnessed) material test certificates are issued with every lot, listing chemistry, mechanicals at relevant test temperatures, hardness, dimensional inspection, and any corrosion or NDT test results required.
Third-party inspection by TUV, Lloyd's, BV, DNV, SGS, and Intertek is arrangeable. NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 sour-service qualification, NORSOK M-650 mill qualification, API 6A wellhead bolting, API 20E subsea bolting, and PED 2014/68/EU pressure-equipment compliance available across the alloy range as the application demands.
