Belleville washers are coned a bit and often used for very stiff
springs.

Look at www.mcmaster.com catalog number 93497A120 for a metric
Belleville washer suitable for 3mm and #4 or #5 screws..

Look at their catalog number 90134A007 for a spring or wave washer to
fit a #6 or 8 screw, the smallest they have. McMaster-Carr calls a split
lock washer a "spring" washer. That is a different function.
