Gardner Spring 36031G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36031G is a precision compression spring manufactured from AISI 302 music wire with a plain silver finish. It features a 0.24-inch outside diameter and a free length of 0.625 inches, with a wire diameter of 0.032 inches. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 10 pounds and a spring rate of 28 pounds per inch, making it well-suited for compact mechanical assemblies requiring consistent, repeatable force. The closed and ground end type ensures stable seating and accurate load transfer. Licensed technicians, mechanical assemblers, and maintenance professionals working with precision machinery regularly specify this spring for its tight tolerances and compliance with industry material standards.

The GARDNER SPRING 36031G is designed for use in precision mechanical applications where space is limited and consistent spring force is critical. Typical installation scenarios include small actuators, valve assemblies, instrumentation components, and industrial equipment requiring a compact compression spring. The 0.25-inch hole diameter fit and solid height of 0.273 inches make it a practical choice for designs with tight dimensional constraints. It is sold in a package quantity of 5 with a minimum order quantity of 1.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals during assembly or component replacement. Before servicing any assembly containing this spring, depressurize and de-energize the system according to the equipment manufacturer's guidelines. Use appropriate hand tools and follow applicable equipment service manuals to ensure correct seating of the closed and ground ends. Inspect the mating bore and rod dimensions against the spring's hole diameter and wire diameter specifications before installation.
