HOW/WHY YOU SHOULD USE A WAVE SPRING FOR BEARING PRELOAD

Home/News/How/Why You Should Use a Wave Spring for Bearing Preload

Smalley Single-Turn Wave Springs are designed with your bearings in mind.
Preloading a Bearing: What is Preloading, How to Preload, Why Should You
Preload?


WHAT DO WE MEAN WHEN WE SAY “PRELOAD”?

A bearing is designed to move freely and has multiple moving parts that work
together as one unit. Tolerance stack up from both manufacturing and assembly
can quickly cause issues.

This is where preloading a bearing comes in. Preloading a bearing involves
providing a sustained axial load to the bearing.


SO HOW DO WE PRELOAD A BEARING? ARE THERE DIFFERENT TYPES?

There are two main methods to preload a bearing. The first is solid preload,
which is achieved by holding inner and outer races in place with a locking
mechanism.

The more common, simpler, and less expensive method is spring preload, which is
achieved by using a spring to apply a constant axial load on one side. A Smalley
single-turn wave spring provides the necessary preload force between the inner
or outer races while also compensating for any tolerance stack-ups or thermal
misalignments. Play is reduced both axially and radially, as depicted in the
image below.




SO WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL, WHY DO WE PRELOAD BEARINGS?

Controlling play is necessary to maintain bearing functionality and longevity.
Preloading a bearing provides constant contact between the bearing type (ball,
needle, etc.) and bearing races. The sustained load provided by the spring
eliminates axial and radial play, among other benefits. The overall goal of
preloading is to prolong bearing life and, therefore, your application.


ADVANTAGES OF SPRING PRELOAD

Properly preloading a bearing will prolong bearing life. Using a spring for
preload is critical for high-precision or high-speed applications, as it
essentially eliminates the need for holding tighter tolerances and helps
withstand high operating speeds.


BENEFITS

 1. Axial and radial play control
    Ball complement and bearing races mate reliably and take up dimensional
    variation.
 2. Less wear on bearing
    Greater load sharing between bearings due to wave design.
 3. Vibration and noise reduction
    Quieter assemblies, even in high-vibration applications.
 4. Eliminate ball skidding
    Constant force is applied for smooth movement.
 5. Precise shaft positioning
    Wave spring keeps shaft centred for optimal centrifugal distribution.


SELECTING A SPRING FOR PRELOADING


WHAT TYPE OF SPRING SHOULD I USE TO PRELOAD A BEARING?

Every application is unique, making selecting the proper wave spring important.

It’s important to consider overall tolerances, as placing too much preload on
the bearing can reduce longevity, while too little can cause higher noise output
in high-vibration systems.

Smalley’s bearing preload wave spring SSB series is carefully designed with the
application in mind. The two types of single-turn wave springs we offer are gap
and overlap.



As the name suggests, the gap type has ends that are split, while the overlap
type has overlapped ends. Both end configurations are free to move around the
circumference as the spring is compressed, which is an advantage over
traditional wave washers. Wave washers can bind, or become rigid, if pushed into
the cavity too much, causing the spring load to become unpredictable.

We have over 300+ standard parts available in carbon steel and stainless steel
to match popular bearing sizes. Find your size by checking out the bearing
cross-reference table .

If you’re looking for higher force applications, a Nested spring is another type
of spring we offer that can accommodate higher preload requirements.
A three-turn Nested spring is pictured in the bearing application below.

As always, our engineering team can assist you in designing a custom preload
bearing spring for your unique application.

   part.
