Gardner Spring GE0500-0632500S Extension Spring 0.5in Od

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING GE0500-0632500S is a close-wound extension spring designed to resist pulling forces and return components to their original position when tension is released. It features a 0.5 inch outside diameter, a 0.063 inch wire diameter, and a spring rate of 9.0376 pounds per inch. The maximum extended length is 4.12 inches, with an initial tension of 1.4773 pounds. This spring is used across mechanical assemblies in HVAC equipment, industrial machinery, and general trade applications where a compact, consistent-rate extension spring is required. Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals.

This extension spring suits applications requiring moderate force over a short travel range. With a 2.5 inch inside hook length, it accommodates standard hook-and-pin or hook-and-rod mounting configurations. It fits into HVAC damper linkages, access door latches, and general mechanical assemblies where reliable return force is needed. The package contains 3 pieces, making it suitable for small batch repair or replacement jobs on residential or light commercial equipment.

Installation Notes

Extension springs store energy under tension and should be installed and removed with appropriate hand tools to prevent snap-back injury. De-energize or de-pressurize any system before servicing spring-loaded components. Verify hook orientation and inside hook length match the mounting points before final installation. Inspect mating hardware for wear or deformation that could affect spring seating or load distribution.
