It features a 0.5 inch outside diameter, a 0.055 inch wire diameter, and a free length of 2.25 inches with a maximum extended length of 4.29 inches. The spring rate is 6.1 pounds per inch, and initial tension is 1.2 pounds. This spring is sold in a package of 3 pieces, making it suitable for small-quantity service calls, repairs, or prototype builds where consistent spring performance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies, HVAC equipment linkages, damper controls, and general industrial machinery where a small-diameter tensile spring with a defined load rate is specified. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, millwrights, and maintenance professionals working on mechanical actuators, door panels, or equipment access covers. Confirm the required spring rate, wire diameter, and hook geometry against the equipment service manual before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 inch outside diameter for compact mechanical assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.1 lb\/in spring rate for predictable tensile load performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.055 inch wire diameter with plain finish and no coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree length of 2.25 inches, maximum extended length of 4.29 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 1.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 3 pieces per order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement extension spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.5 inch OD, 0.055 inch wire diameter, and 6.1 lb\/in spring rate with a 2.25 inch free length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtension springs store energy under tension and should be handled with care to avoid sudden release during removal or installation. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before servicing spring-loaded assemblies. Use appropriate hand tools and eye protection. Verify hook orientation and engagement depth match the original spring configuration before returning equipment to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.1 lb\/in\u003c\/li\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\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.29 inches\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: 2.25 inches\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: 0.5 pounds\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: GE0500-055-2250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52087978590514,"sku":"GE0500-055-2250","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/450f24091e6ef945704e0a0bbf491eaf_79a99871-9d57-41e7-ab11-5a1ce4d9cb4e.jpg?v=1790060702","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-ge0500-055-2250-extension-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
