It is designed to store and release mechanical energy under axial compressive loads in assemblies where corrosion resistance and consistent spring rates are critical. At 0.18 inches outside diameter and 0.25 inches free length, this is a small-format spring suited for tight-tolerance applications. It carries a spring rate of 26.09 pounds per inch and a maximum load capacity of 3.48 pounds. It features closed and ground ends for flat, stable seating and predictable deflection. Maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and field service professionals working with precision equipment are the typical end users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring is used in applications where a compact, high-precision compression element is required. Its small outside diameter and short free length make it well suited for use inside valves, actuators, small appliances, HVAC components, instrumentation, and similar assemblies. The stainless steel material with plain finish provides resistance to corrosion in environments exposed to moisture or mild chemicals. The solid height of 0.111 inches limits full compression travel, and the recommended hole diameter for housing is 0.187 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction with plain finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed and ground end type for stable seating and consistent load transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 26.09 pounds per inch for predictable deflection behavior\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 3.48 pounds at rated deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrecision spring type with tight dimensional tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor: 0.18 inches OD and 0.25 inches free length for tight-space installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision compression spring suitable for use in valves, actuators, instrumentation, and small mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.18 inch outside diameter spring with a 0.187 inch housing hole diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by mechanical assemblers or field service technicians. Always de-energize and depressurize any assembly before replacing internal spring components. Verify housing bore diameter matches the 0.187 inch recommended hole diameter and confirm solid height clearance of 0.111 inches within the assembly stack. Do not exceed the rated maximum load of 3.48 pounds to avoid permanent set or premature fatigue failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26.09 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.48 pounds (15.46 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.022 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.111 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.187 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed and Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GARDNER SPRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36015GS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51959452270898,"sku":"36015GS","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/88fd442907c462feef4e6f21a19d2d23.jpg?v=1789945700","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-36015gs-compression-spring-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
