It features a 0.5-inch outside diameter, a 0.055-inch wire diameter, and a spring rate of 9 pounds per inch. With a maximum extended length of 3.01 inches and an initial tension of 1.2 pounds, this spring delivers controlled, predictable force across a range of mechanical assemblies. It is suited for use in HVAC equipment, control linkages, damper assemblies, and general industrial applications where a compact, reliable tension spring is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is used in residential and light commercial applications where consistent return force and compact geometry are needed. Typical installation scenarios include damper linkages, access panel latches, and control arm return mechanisms found in HVAC units, appliance assemblies, and related mechanical equipment. Each package contains 3 pieces, making it convenient for service technicians who need on-hand spares for common spring replacements in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9 lb\/in spring rate for consistent, predictable tensile resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch outside diameter and 0.055-inch wire diameter for compact fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum extended length of 3.01 inches suits tight clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 1.2 pounds reduces slack and maintains preload without external force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInside hook length of 1-3\/4 inches for secure attachment to mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a 3-piece package, providing extras for service stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement extension spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.5-inch OD, 0.055-inch wire diameter helical tension spring with a 9 lb\/in spring rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtension springs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with mechanical assemblies and spring-loaded components. Before servicing any equipment, de-energize the unit and relieve any stored mechanical tension in the assembly. Use appropriate spring installation tools to seat hooks securely and avoid overstretching the spring beyond its maximum extended length, which can cause permanent deformation. Verify that hook attachment points are free of burrs or sharp edges that could cause premature wear or fatigue failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.055 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.01 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 lb\/in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Hook Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/4 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: 0.5 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: GE0500-055-1750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52001294254386,"sku":"GE0500-055-1750","price":15.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f0edc00f80fab616a8dbe2e5b0d4eaa2.jpg?v=1789997101","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-ge0500-055-1750-extension-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
