Gardner Spring 36057GS Compression Spring Stainless Steel

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36057GS is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel with a plain finish. It features an outside diameter of 0.36 inches and a free length of 0.5 inches, making it a compact, high-precision component suited for tight-tolerance assemblies. The wire diameter is 0.026 inches, the solid height is 0.108 inches, and the spring delivers a maximum work load of 3.04 pounds with a spring rate of 7.83 pounds per inch. Closed and ground ends provide stable seating and consistent load distribution. This spring is typically installed by mechanical assemblers, equipment technicians, and maintenance professionals working on precision mechanical or industrial systems.

This compression spring is appropriate for use in precision mechanical assemblies where a compact, consistent spring force is required. Its stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments that demand corrosion resistance. The spring fits into a hole diameter of 0.375 inches, making it easy to locate and retain within standard bore housings. Typical applications include instrumentation, valves, medical devices, and light industrial equipment requiring reliable spring return or load bearing in a small form factor.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or assemblers during equipment assembly or maintenance. Ensure the mating bore or housing is clean and free of debris before seating the spring. Confirm that the installed load does not exceed the rated maximum work load of 3.04 pounds to avoid permanent set or fatigue failure. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant industry standards for spring installation in your specific application.
