Buffer Spring Washers in Buffer assembly

Apr 29, 2026

Disc springs (Belleville washers) act as buffer spring washers are used in buffer assembly within recoil buffer systems to manage high-impact loads. By stacking belleville springs in specific configurations, they form a highly stiff yet compact spring system, making them ideal for absorbing powerful impacts.

 

In a buffer assembly, belleville spring washers set is mounted on a buffer post and acts as a key energy absorb element.

 

When the bolt carrier group moves rearward, it strikes the buffer system with significant kinetic energy.

 

Belleville spring washers set is then progressively compressed, absorbing such impacts rather than allowing direct metal-to-metal contact.
