Wavy washers are something entirely different, and if Van Cafe are
using them in that application they're using the wrong thing.  There
are a number of places on the van that use wavy washers (which are
springy, but with nothing like the strength of a Belleville
washer).  ETKA clearly says "concave washer" which is the generic name.
