Description
The Bedford 23-2236 is a compatible replacement for Wagner part 9894231, a wave spring for Wagner spray equipment. A wave spring is a flat, rippled washer-style spring that maintains preload in spaces too tight for a coil spring, keeping the parts it backs firmly seated through vibration and pressure cycling.
Common reasons for replacement:
- Loss of preload letting adjacent parts shift or chatter
- Flattened waves after repeated compression cycles
- Corrosion from trapped fluid or cleanup solvents
- Renewed whenever its assembly is opened for service
Manufactured to OEM-equivalent dimensions for proper fit and performance. Compatible Wagner equipment models are listed in the Compatible Equipment section below, where available.
