Gardner Spring 36035GS Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36035GS is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel to tight dimensional tolerances. It measures 0.24 inches in outside diameter and 1.5 inches in free length, with a wire diameter of 0.0382 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 18.26 lb/in and supports a maximum work load of 13.91 pounds. Closed and ground ends ensure flat, stable seating against mating surfaces. This spring is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general industrial applications where consistent force and corrosion resistance are required.

This compression spring fits into applications requiring a hole diameter of up to 0.25 inches. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or mild chemical contact. Typical install scenarios include valve assemblies, actuator mechanisms, control linkages, and other precision mechanical assemblies found in trade equipment. The compact free length and low solid height of 0.772 inches allow use in space-constrained designs.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments
• Closed and ground ends provide flat seating and consistent load transfer
• Spring rate of 18.26 lb/in supports predictable, linear deflection behavior
• Maximum work load of 13.91 pounds with solid height of 0.772 inches
• Outside diameter of 0.24 inches fits holes up to 0.25 inches in diameter
• Meets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 material standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision compression spring for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24 inch OD spring with a 1.5 inch free length and closed and ground ends.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified mechanic or technician as part of a larger assembly or repair procedure. De-energize and isolate any equipment before disassembling spring-loaded components. Inspect mating surfaces and housing bores for damage before seating the spring. Verify the installed load and deflection values fall within the design specification for the application before returning the assembly to service.
