Gardner Spring 36028GS Compression Spring 0.24in Od Stainless

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36028GS is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel with a plain finish. It measures 0.24 inches outside diameter and 0.625 inches free length, with a wire diameter of 0.026 inches. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 10.87 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 4.57 pounds. Closed and ground ends provide stable seating and consistent force application across the compression stroke. This part is sized for use in small-mechanism assemblies and is suited for installation by maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and trade professionals working with precision hardware components.

This compression spring is applicable in light-duty mechanical assemblies where a compact, corrosion-resistant spring is required. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or temperature variation. Its 0.25-inch hole diameter fit and 0.203-inch solid height make it a practical choice for tight-clearance installations in HVAC equipment, plumbing valves, electrical components, and general industrial mechanisms. Sold in a package quantity of five units.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or trade professionals as part of valve, actuator, or equipment assembly work. Ensure the mating bore and rod dimensions are confirmed against the spring outside diameter and hole diameter before installation. Depressurize or de-energize the assembly before removing or replacing any spring component. Handle precision springs carefully to avoid distortion of the coils, which can alter spring rate and load characteristics.
