Question Spring Newbie

This is my first time posting here. I would like to know how to calculate the service life (number of years) of the spring washers. I searched on the internet for a method, but couldn’t find it. There is no specific size either.

Answer Tokai Spring

Thank you for writing to us, Saboten!

Spring washers are generally used statically to prevent the bolts from loosening, so unfortunately there is no method for calculating the service life. However, the lifespan will be greatly affected by the usage environment, so it may be necessary to check it by regular inspections!
