Hi
I am still working on the old style brake for my E12 I've got it all
back together and replace all the missing parts. I am at the point
were I am adjusting the brake with the castellated bolt, the parts
diagram in the shop manual show the bolt a 5MM washer and then three
Belleville washers. Currently I have only the bolt. What is a
Belleville washer?
They are a dome shaped washer. The shape provides a spring force that
maintains pressure during temperature and other variations. See
