Gardner Spring 36025G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36025G is a precision compression spring manufactured from music wire (AISI 302 / ASTM A228 / ASTM A313) with a plain silver finish. It features a 0.24-inch outside diameter, a 0.562-inch free length, and a 0.022-inch wire diameter. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 8 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 3.25 pounds (14.46 N). Closed and ground ends provide consistent seating and stable load transfer. This part is suited for assembly, mechanical, and industrial applications where a small-format, high-precision compression spring is required. Installation is typically performed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians.

The 36025G fits applications calling for a compact precision compression spring with a 0.25-inch hole diameter clearance. Its solid height of 0.144 inches and tight dimensional tolerances make it appropriate for use in instruments, valves, actuators, and light mechanical assemblies where space is constrained and consistent spring force is critical. It is sold in minimum quantities of 1 with a package quantity of 5.

Key Features

• Closed and ground ends for stable, flat seating and accurate load application
• Music wire construction meets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 standards
• Spring rate of 8 pounds per inch for predictable, linear deflection
• Maximum work load of 3.25 pounds (14.46 N)
• Solid height of 0.144 inches suits tight axial clearances
• Plain silver finish with no coating - ready for direct installation

Compatibility

Designed as a precision OEM-style compression spring for mechanical assemblies, instruments, valves, and actuators requiring a 0.24-inch outside diameter and 0.562-inch free length spring with a 0.25-inch hole diameter fit.

Installation Notes

This spring is installed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians working on small mechanical assemblies. Ensure the mating bore or hole diameter is at or near 0.25 inches to maintain proper spring alignment during compression. Verify that the installed height does not compress the spring below its solid height of 0.144 inches, as coil bind will damage the spring and the assembly. De-energize or depressurize any system before replacing springs in valve or actuator applications.
