It features a 0.18-inch outside diameter, a 0.018-inch wire diameter, and a spring rate of 0.6 pounds per inch. The maximum extended length is 3.65 inches, with a free length of approximately 1.37 inches (34.80 mm). The plain uncoated finish is standard for general indoor mechanical assemblies. This spring is sold in packages of 3 pieces and is suited for technicians, engineers, and skilled tradespeople working on equipment requiring small-format tension springs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring fits light-duty mechanical assemblies where a compact, low-force tension element is needed. Typical applications include HVAC damper linkages, control panel mechanisms, small appliance hardware, and general equipment assemblies requiring controlled return force. The initial tension of 0.14 pounds keeps the spring closed before additional load is applied. Its small profile makes it appropriate for confined mounting spaces in both residential and commercial equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.18-inch outside diameter for compact, tight-clearance installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.018-inch wire diameter providing a 0.6 lb\/in spring rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum extended length of 3.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 0.14 pounds to maintain closed position under no load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlain uncoated finish suitable for general indoor mechanical use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a pack of 3 pieces per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-format extension spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.18-inch OD, 0.018-inch wire diameter, and 0.6 lb\/in spring rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtension springs should be installed by qualified mechanical or HVAC technicians familiar with spring-loaded assemblies. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before servicing any spring components. Use appropriate hooks or attachment hardware rated for the spring load to avoid premature failure at the end loops. Do not stretch the spring beyond its maximum extended length of 3.65 inches, as permanent deformation or failure may result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6 lb\/in\u003c\/li\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: 0.018 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34.80 mm (approximately 1.37 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\/Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\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: GE0180-018-1370\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52046362378546,"sku":"GE0180-018-1370","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/450f24091e6ef945704e0a0bbf491eaf_21daee69-8779-4a89-a83a-fb162981fa60.jpg?v=1790031159","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-ge0180-018-1370-extension-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
