It features a 0.18-inch outside diameter, a free length of 1.75 inches, and a 0.032-inch wire diameter. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 7.7 pounds and a spring rate of 16.03 pounds per inch, making it well-suited for compact assemblies that require repeatable, controlled compression force. Licensed mechanical, HVAC, and industrial service technicians commonly use springs of this type in actuators, valves, and equipment control mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring fits applications where a small outside diameter and moderate spring rate are needed within confined spaces. It is used in residential and commercial equipment assemblies, instrument mechanisms, and industrial tooling. The 0.188-inch hole diameter and 0.99-inch solid height provide useful reference dimensions when specifying fit within a bore or housing. Sold in packages of five, this spring suits both service replacement needs and small-volume production or prototype work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.18-inch outside diameter for compact, tight-clearance installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.75-inch free length with a solid height of 0.99 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusic wire construction for consistent elastic properties and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 16.03 pounds per inch for predictable, linear load response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum work load rated at 7.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.032-inch wire diameter for fine, precise spring geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard compression spring replacement or component for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.18-inch OD, 1.75-inch free length music wire spring with a 16.03 pounds-per-inch spring rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompression springs of this size are typically installed by mechanical technicians or assemblers during equipment repair or new assembly. Before servicing any spring-loaded mechanism, relieve all stored mechanical energy and de-energize related electrical or pneumatic systems. Use appropriate hand tools and inspect the seating surfaces for wear or corrosion before installing the replacement spring. Verify the compressed and free lengths are compatible with the housing to prevent coil binding or premature failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.032 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.99 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.188 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.03 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Music Wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: GC180-1750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52015207088434,"sku":"GC180-1750","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cc6d4170d259bfdef11891688697718b.jpg?v=1790007577","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-gc180-1750-compression-spring-music-wire","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
