Description

A Belleville nut is a conical spring-style washer that provides axial tension and helps maintain a secure fastening under vibration and thermal cycling. It prevents fasteners from loosening so components stay mounted and aligned. What it does:

• Acts as a spring washer to keep bolts and studs under constant tension
• Helps prevent fasteners from backing out due to vibration or thermal changes
• Restores proper clamp force when a standard flat washer no longer holds
• Commonly used where a compact, high-load spring washer is required

What's included:

• One Belleville nut

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and follow all safety precautions
• Install on the correct fastener and seat the cone so it provides axial spring force
• Do not reuse if visibly deformed, corroded, or cracked
• Avoid over-tightening; snug to manufacturer torque specification when available
