Gardner Spring 37062GS Extension Spring 0.5 in Od Stainless

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING 37062GS is a stainless steel extension spring designed for light-duty tensioning and return-force applications across mechanical, HVAC, and industrial assemblies. It features a 0.5-inch outside diameter and a 0.037-inch wire diameter, with a spring rate of 0.78 pounds per inch. The free length measures 2 inches and the maximum extended length reaches 6.27 inches, giving technicians a clear working range for load calculations. With a maximum work load of 3.74 pounds and an initial tension of 0.4 pounds, this spring delivers consistent, predictable performance. Sold in a pack of 3, it suits applications where spares or matched sets are needed on the job.

This extension spring fits a range of light mechanical and HVAC-related applications where a small-diameter, low-load return spring is required. Typical uses include damper linkages, panel latches, control arm returns, and similar assemblies found in residential and light commercial equipment. The plain finish on stainless steel construction resists corrosion in environments with moderate humidity or occasional moisture exposure, making it suitable for mechanical rooms, rooftop units, and similar service locations.

Installation Notes

Extension springs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with the host assembly. De-energize or shut down the equipment fully before removing or installing any spring components. Use appropriate hand tools and eye protection, as extension springs store energy and can release suddenly if slipped during installation. Verify that the replacement spring rate and load rating match the original equipment specification before placing the assembly back in service.
