Gardner Spring 36027G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36027G is a precision compression spring manufactured from music wire with a plain silver finish. It measures 0.24 inches outside diameter and 0.375 inches free length, with a wire diameter of 0.026 inches and a solid height of 0.131 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 24 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 5.25 pounds. Ends are closed and ground for flat, stable seating. This spring is suited for mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, and light-duty industrial applications where consistent force and compact size are required. Licensed trades and mechanical technicians install this type of component during equipment repair and assembly work.

The 36027G fits applications calling for a small-diameter compression spring in a 0.25-inch diameter hole. Its compact free length and high spring rate relative to its size make it appropriate for precision mechanisms, valves, switches, and similar assemblies found in HVAC equipment, plumbing hardware, and general mechanical devices. The music wire construction provides consistent performance across repeated compression cycles in standard temperature environments.

Key Features

• Closed and ground ends provide flat, stable contact surfaces for consistent load distribution
• 24 pounds per inch spring rate delivers predictable, repeatable force output
• Music wire construction meets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 standards
• 0.24 inches OD fits a 0.25-inch diameter hole with standard clearance
• Compact 0.375-inch free length suits space-constrained mechanical assemblies
• Plain silver finish suitable for dry or lightly lubricated environments

Compatibility

Designed as a precision compression spring replacement or component for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24-inch outside diameter spring with a 0.375-inch free length and a 24 pounds per inch spring rate, fitting into a 0.25-inch diameter hole.

Installation Notes

This spring is installed by mechanical technicians and trade professionals during equipment assembly or repair. Power down and de-energize any equipment before accessing spring-loaded components. Use appropriate hand tools and ensure the spring is fully seated against closed and ground ends before applying load. Verify that the mating hole diameter and depth are within design tolerances before installation.
