SELECTING A GRADE OF STAINLESS STEEL FOR CIRCLIPS AND WAVE SPRINGS







When selecting a grade of stainless steel for your circlip or wave spring, it is
most important to assess the needs and the environment the part will be
subjected to. The experts at Rotor Clip look at some factors to consider.



When choosing a material for your circlip or wave spring, it is crucial to
consider various factors to ensure optimal performance in your application.
Stainless steel is often the preferred choice for applications where a standard
carbon steel part would not be protected, with the ring or spring being exposed
to destructive factors such as grease, saltwater, chemicals or extreme
temperatures. 

Rotor Clip offers many different grades of stainless steel, but it is important
to assess the needs and application requirements to ensure the right solution is
selected. Some of the main factors to consider in the selection of a stainless
steel grade are: 

Budget – Stainless steel is typically a more expensive option than the standard
material offering of carbon steel. The grade of stainless steel you select will
result in differing prices. However, although it may incur a slightly higher
price, stainless steel has the ability to maintain higher strength to higher
temperatures and has better corrosion resistance, making it a superior choice in
many applications.

Protection – It is important to consider what the ring will be subjected to once
in the application and therefore what level of protection the part will require.
For example, will the part be exposed to a saltwater environment and therefore
require corrosion resistance? These factors will determine which grade of
stainless steel would be most suitable for an application.

Operational temperatures – In certain applications like jet engines and gas
turbines, metals are subjected to extreme temperatures. Their ability to
maintain strength can lessen and their properties change. High strength is
essential to retain the shape of the part and the seating in the groove, or the
shape of the spring.

Magnetism – certain applications such as MRIs or directional drilling machines,
may require the part to have no magnetic properties. Stainless steels are
typically non-magnetic, but due to certain manufacturing processes the parts can
inherit residual magnetism, so be sure to consult with a Rotor Clip engineer
before final purchase.

Rotor Clip’s vertically integrated manufacturing process allows for the
production of standard and custom solutions. The company’s large raw materials
warehouse is filled with standard and exotic alloys ready for stamping, coiling
and processing.
