A Spring Washer (also known as a Split Washer) is a type of washer designed to provide tension and prevent loosening of fasteners due to vibrations or torque. It is typically made from materials like steel, stainless steel, or carbon steel and has a split or spiral shape. When compressed, the washer exerts a spring-like force that helps maintain the tightness of the bolt or nut, ensuring a secure connection. Spring washers are commonly used in applications where vibration or movement might cause a fastener to loosen, such as in machinery, automotive, and construction. Their ability to maintain tension makes them ideal for ensuring the reliability and longevity of threaded connections.
