Gardner Spring 36065G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36065G is a precision compression spring manufactured from AISI 302 music wire with a plain silver finish. It features a 0.36-inch outside diameter and a 1.5-inch free length, with a wire diameter of 0.0382 inches. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 9 lb/in and handles a maximum working load of 10.25 pounds. Closed and ground ends provide consistent seating and even load distribution. This part is sized for applications requiring a hole diameter of 0.375 inches and a solid height of 0.477 inches. It is suited for mechanical assemblies across HVAC, plumbing, industrial, and general trade applications where reliable, repeatable compression force is required.

This spring is appropriate for use in light-duty compression applications found in residential and commercial mechanical systems, valve assemblies, actuators, and equipment housings. The compact dimensions and music wire construction make it a standard choice for OEM replacement and field repair scenarios. It ships in a package quantity of 5, making it practical for technicians who need spares on hand during service calls or equipment rebuilds.

Key Features

• Closed and ground end type for stable, flat seating under load
• Music wire construction meets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 standards
• Spring rate of 9 lb/in provides predictable, linear compression response
• Maximum working load of 10.25 pounds suitable for light mechanical assemblies
• Plain silver finish with no coating to interfere with dimensional tolerances
• Solid height of 0.477 inches and hole fit diameter of 0.375 inches for precise fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a precision OEM-style compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.36-inch outside diameter and 1.5-inch free length in music wire construction.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this type are installed by mechanical technicians and field service professionals using standard hand tools. Always de-energize or depressurize the assembly before replacing springs in valve bodies, actuators, or pressurized housings. Confirm that the seating surfaces are clean and free of debris before installation to ensure proper solid height and load performance. Do not overcompress the spring beyond its rated solid height during assembly.
