It measures 0.18 inches in outside diameter with a wire diameter of 0.018 inches and a maximum extended length of 2.85 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 0.6952 pounds per inch with an initial tension of 0.1217 pounds, making it suitable for precise, low-force return and tensioning functions. Each package contains 3 pieces. Licensed technicians and mechanical assemblers working on equipment that requires consistent, repeatable spring tension will find this part a direct-fit solution for OEM-style replacements and new installations alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is used in applications where a compact, light-tension return mechanism is required. Typical install scenarios include damper linkages, control actuators, access panel latches, and small mechanical assemblies found in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, as well as general industrial machinery. Its small outside diameter and low spring rate make it well-suited for precision mechanisms where overloading or excessive deflection must be avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.18 inches for use in tight-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire diameter of 0.018 inches provides consistent, repeatable coil geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 0.6952 pounds per inch for controlled, low-force tensioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 0.1217 pounds minimizes unwanted free play in the mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum extended length of 2.85 inches defines the safe operating range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a pack of 3 to support service kits and low-volume replacement needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement extension spring for light-duty tensioning applications in mechanical and HVAC assemblies requiring a 0.18-inch outside diameter and 0.018-inch wire diameter specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified mechanical assembler. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before accessing any spring-loaded mechanisms. Verify the replacement spring matches the required outside diameter, wire diameter, and spring rate before installation to avoid over-extension or premature fatigue. Do not stretch the spring beyond its maximum extended length of 2.85 inches during installation or operation.\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: 0.018 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6952 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1217 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161907\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: GE0180-0181120S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52042027467058,"sku":"GE0180-0181120S","price":16.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f0ee2fe6e36d01a34706113495f47573_9c14537d-7eda-424f-b7b0-48a6febcd5f0.jpg?v=1790028104","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-ge0180-0181120s-extension-spring-3-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
