With an outside diameter of 0.24 inches, a wire diameter of 0.018 inches, and a maximum extended length of 8.64 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 0.1738 lb\/in with an initial tension of 0.0956 pounds. It is used in mechanical assemblies, HVAC equipment linkages, damper control mechanisms, and similar light-load actuation systems. Installation is performed by technicians and assemblers working on mechanical or HVAC control components where precise spring force is critical to proper operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is suited for light-load mechanical applications found in residential and commercial HVAC systems, damper assemblies, and general industrial equipment. The inside hook length of 2 inches allows for straightforward integration into standard mounting configurations. Each package contains 3 pieces, making it practical for service calls or bench-stock replenishment in shops that service mechanical actuator systems and control linkages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.24 inches for compact installation in tight assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum extended length of 8.64 inches providing generous travel range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire diameter of 0.018 inches with a calibrated spring rate of 0.1738 lb\/in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 0.0956 pounds for consistent preload behavior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside hook length of 2 inches for standard loop-mount configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a 3-piece package to support field service and bench stock 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 mechanical actuation and linkage assemblies requiring a 0.24-inch OD and 0.018-inch wire diameter specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtension springs of this type are typically installed by HVAC technicians or mechanical assemblers during damper linkage service or control component replacement. Always de-energize the system and relieve any mechanical tension in the assembly before removing or installing springs. Use appropriate small-parts tools to seat the hooks securely in their anchor points without overstretching the spring body. Verify that the installed spring length and hook engagement match the original configuration before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.24 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: 8.64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1738 lb\/in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0956 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Hook Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\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: 0.3 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: GE0240-0182000S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51993081872690,"sku":"GE0240-0182000S","price":15.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f0ee2fe6e36d01a34706113495f47573_b20a69e1-ae00-4cef-a254-fa9bc1f1b289.jpg?v=1789990820","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-ge0240-0182000s-extension-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
