Gardner Spring 36030G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36030G 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 inches outside diameter, a free length of 0.312 inches, and a wire diameter of 0.032 inches. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 10 pounds and a spring rate of 62 pounds per inch, with a solid height of 0.161 inches. This part is suited for applications requiring consistent, repeatable compression force in compact assemblies. Mechanical engineers, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals sourcing small-format precision springs for instrumentation, valve, or equipment repair applications typically install this component.

The 36030G is designed for use in tight-clearance assemblies where a small outside diameter and precise spring rate are critical. Its closed and ground end type provides stable seating against flat surfaces, making it appropriate for valve mechanisms, relay components, fluid control devices, and similar light-load mechanical assemblies. The 0.25 inches hole diameter fit and music wire construction make it a reliable choice for both OEM production runs and MRO replacement use. Sold in packages of five units with a minimum order quantity of one package.

• 0.24 inches outside diameter fits holes up to 0.25 inches
• 10 pound maximum work load rated for light-duty precision applications
• Plain silver finish suitable for dry or lightly lubricated environments

Compatibility

Designed as a precision OEM-style compression spring for compact mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24 inches outside diameter and 0.312 inches free length with a 62 pounds per inch spring rate.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or tradespeople during assembly, repair, or MRO maintenance of equipment containing small compression springs. Before replacing a spring in any pressurized or energized assembly, relieve system pressure and de-energize all associated components per applicable safety procedures. Verify the seating surfaces are clean and flat to ensure proper contact with the closed and ground ends. Confirm the replacement spring rate and free length match the original design specification before finalizing assembly.
