Gardner Spring 36413GS Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36413GS is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel for consistent, repeatable performance in demanding mechanical assemblies. It features a 0.36-inch outside diameter, a 2-inch free length, and a 0.032-inch wire diameter, delivering a spring rate of 3.48 pounds per inch with a maximum work load of 6 pounds. The closed and ground end type provides stable seating and accurate load transfer across a range of applications. This spring is appropriate for licensed tradespeople, mechanical assemblers, and engineers sourcing precision hardware for HVAC, plumbing, and industrial equipment.

This compression spring fits into applications requiring controlled force in compact spaces. Its 3/8-inch hole diameter fit and 0.421-inch solid height make it well suited for valve mechanisms, actuators, and light-duty mechanical assemblies found in residential and commercial trade equipment. The stainless steel construction and plain finish provide corrosion resistance for use in wet or high-humidity environments common to plumbing and HVAC service.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision replacement compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.36-inch outside diameter and 2-inch free length with closed and ground ends.

Installation Notes

Install this spring with the ground ends seated flat against mating surfaces to ensure proper load distribution and consistent performance. Power down or depressurize any system before replacing springs in valve or actuator assemblies. Use appropriately sized spring tools or needle-nose pliers to compress and seat the spring without distorting the coils. Consult the equipment service manual for minimum and maximum compression limits applicable to the assembly.
