With a 0.25 inch outside diameter and a 2 inch free length, this spring delivers a spring rate of 4.86 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 6.9 pounds. Constructed from steel with a zinc finish, the C11C features closed ends and a solid height of 0.58 inches. It is sized for installations where space is limited and reliable load performance is required. Mechanical contractors, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals install this type of spring in equipment assemblies, valve mechanisms, and general service hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C11C is suited for light-duty compression applications across residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Its closed-end design provides stable seating against mating surfaces, making it appropriate for use in HVAC equipment assemblies, plumbing valve components, electrical panel hardware, and similar trade-service applications where a small-diameter compression spring is required. The silver zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for typical indoor service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.25 inch outside diameter fits compact mechanical assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 inch free length with a solid height of 0.58 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 4.86 pounds per inch for predictable load response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum work load rated at 6.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed ends for stable, flat seating against mating surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish provides basic corrosion protection in indoor service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a utility compression spring for general mechanical replacement and OEM-style service in light-duty equipment assemblies requiring a 0.25 inch OD closed-end spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompression springs of this type are installed by mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing technicians as part of equipment service or valve rebuilds. De-energize and isolate the system before disassembling any spring-loaded component. Verify that the replacement spring matches the original free length, outside diameter, and spring rate before installation to avoid improper load performance. Refer to the equipment manufacturer's service documentation for assembly torque and seating requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.58 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0287 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.86 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.9 pounds (30.69 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Utility Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\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: C11C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52124441346354,"sku":"C11C","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a2cc46b4b760775f1088d0fb6e9fc530.jpg?v=1790086813","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-c11c-utility-compression-spring-0-25in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
