With an outside diameter of 0.24 inches and a free length of 1 inch, this spring is engineered for tight-tolerance assemblies where dimensional accuracy is critical. A wire diameter of 0.026 inches produces a spring rate of 6.43 pounds per inch, supporting a maximum work load of 5 pounds. Closed and ground ends ensure square seating and stable load transfer. Compliance with AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 standards confirms material consistency across production runs. Licensed technicians and mechanical assemblers working in HVAC, fluid control, and precision equipment service will find this spring a direct fit for OEM-level replacement or new assembly work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant spring element is required. Typical use cases include valve actuators, control linkages, pressure-relief assemblies, and precision mechanical subassemblies found in HVAC systems, plumbing valves, and electrical control hardware. The 0.25-inch hole diameter fit and 0.30-inch solid height make it well-suited for confined mounting spaces where stack height is a constraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed and ground ends for square, stable seating under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction with plain finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 6.43 pounds per inch for predictable, linear force response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 5 pounds with a solid height of 0.30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets AISI 302, ASTM A228, and ASTM A313 material standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrecision classification ensures tight dimensional tolerances across the production lot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24-inch outside diameter, 1-inch free length, and a 0.25-inch hole diameter fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed mechanical technicians or qualified assemblers. Before replacing or installing this spring, de-energize and de-pressurize the assembly completely to eliminate stored mechanical energy hazards. Use calibrated calipers to confirm seating diameter and free length before finalizing installation. Do not stretch or pre-compress the spring beyond its rated maximum work load, as permanent set may occur and affect system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.026 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.43 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds (20.29 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed and Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI 302, ASTM A228, ASTM A313\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GARDNER SPRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36308GS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51997747413298,"sku":"36308GS","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/15185812b21f15bf8b41b21d27cb7408.jpg?v=1789994336","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-36308gs-precision-compression-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
