Are these those special U joint washers?
I know I have them in my stash piles somewhere, but are these two those special U joint washers? If not, does anyone have one or two they'd be willing to sell?
Thanks, |

Re: Are these those special U joint washers?
Looks like you have the real deal, especially given the marks created by the shake-proof lock washer that was originally used for that application.

Yes, those are the correct ones. There is also a truck one that is similar that can work as well.

Re: Are these those special U joint washers?
Thanks, gentlemen. David, agree about the marks.
In a previous post, someone mentioned that these are actually a "spring"? Are they designed to allow some movement under load? |

No.....they are bellows washers.....crank the bolt down to the correct torque value and there will be no movement allowed. |

You are correct in the technica/patentedl name "Belleville".......they are spring washers however, specifically designed for axial load applications. |

We also used many Belleville/spring loading type washers during the manufacture of power tools and industrial equipment at the company I worked for.
