Gardner Spring 36536G Precision Compression Spring

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 36536G is a precision compression spring manufactured from music wire (ASTM A228) with a plain silver finish. It features a 0.600-inch outside diameter and a 1.5-inch free length, making it suitable for compact mechanical assemblies where consistent load performance is required. The spring delivers a rate of 85.77 pounds per inch and supports a maximum working load of 63 pounds. Closed and ground ends provide flat, stable seating surfaces for accurate load transfer and reduced lateral movement under compression. Qualified technicians and mechanical assemblers working with industrial, HVAC, or fluid-handling equipment select this part for its dimensional consistency and compliance with recognized material standards.

This compression spring is suited for use in mechanical sub-assemblies requiring precise spring rates and reliable load behavior across repeated compression cycles. Its 0.085-inch wire diameter and 0.760-inch solid height make it appropriate for applications where space constraints and exact force specifications are engineering requirements. Typical installation scenarios include valve mechanisms, actuators, and industrial equipment requiring a standardized, AISI 302 or ASTM A228-grade music wire spring.

Key Features

• Closed and ground end type for flat, stable seating and accurate load distribution
• 85.77 pounds per inch spring rate for precise, repeatable force behavior
• 63-pound maximum working load capacity
• Music wire construction meets ASTM A228 and ASTM A313 material standards
• 0.600-inch outside diameter fits hole diameters up to 0.625 inches
• Plain silver finish with no added coating that could affect dimensional tolerances

Compatibility

Designed as a precision OEM-style replacement or original-specification compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.600-inch outside diameter, 1.5-inch free length, and closed and ground ends in music wire construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or assembler familiar with spring-loaded component procedures. Depressurize and de-energize the host assembly completely before removing or installing compression springs. Verify that the mating bore or shaft dimensions align with the 0.625-inch hole diameter and 0.600-inch outside diameter before seating the spring. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height of 0.760 inches during installation or operation.
