Gardner Spring 36059GS Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36059GS is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel and suited for demanding mechanical and industrial applications. It features a 0.36-inch outside diameter and a 1.125-inch free length, with a wire diameter of 0.026 inches and a solid height of 0.19 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 3.04 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 3.04 pounds. With closed and ground ends, it seats predictably under load and maintains consistent travel. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical assemblers encounter springs of this type in valve assemblies, actuator mechanisms, and control components across a range of trade equipment.

This compression spring is appropriate for use in light-duty mechanical applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant spring element is required. Its stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice in environments with moisture exposure or where material compatibility with AISI 302 or ASTM-grade wire stock is specified. It fits into holes up to 0.375 inches in diameter, making it compatible with standard small-bore spring pockets found in valves, dampers, and actuator housings used in commercial and residential mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Closed and ground end type for stable, flat seating and accurate load transfer
• 0.36-inch outside diameter fits into 0.375-inch hole diameter pockets
• 3.04 lb per inch spring rate with a maximum work load of 3.04 pounds
• Stainless steel construction meets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 standards
• 0.026-inch wire diameter and 0.19-inch solid height for compact installation envelopes
• Plain silver finish with no coating to interfere with mating surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as a precision-grade replacement or service spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.36-inch OD compression spring with closed and ground ends. Fits standard spring pockets with a hole diameter of 0.375 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation of compression springs in valve or actuator assemblies should be performed by a qualified trade technician familiar with the host equipment. Depressurize and de-energize the system fully before disassembling any spring-loaded component. Use appropriate hand tools and avoid overstretching or laterally deflecting the spring during seating. Verify that the replacement spring rate and free length match the original specification before returning the assembly to service.
