Gardner Spring GE0500-0635000S Extension Spring 0.5in Od

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING GE0500-0635000S is a close-wound extension spring designed to resist pulling forces and return components to their resting position when tension is released. Built with a 0.5-inch outside diameter and a 0.063-inch wire diameter, this spring delivers a spring rate of 3.6498 pounds per inch with an initial tension of 1.4773 pounds. The maximum extended length reaches 9.04 inches. It is used across mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, and industrial applications where controlled return force is required. Mechanical technicians, equipment service professionals, and maintenance trades install this type of spring in both light commercial and industrial settings.

This extension spring fits applications requiring a compact-diameter, moderate-rate return spring. The 0.5-inch OD and 9.04-inch extended length suit installations where space is limited along the axis of travel but full extension range is needed. The inside hook length of 5 inches accommodates standard hook-style mounting points. This spring ships in a package quantity of 3 pieces, making it practical for service calls that may require a spare or for small-batch maintenance jobs.

Installation Notes

Extension springs should be installed by a qualified mechanical or maintenance technician familiar with spring-loaded assemblies. Always relieve any stored energy in the existing mechanism before removing the old spring. Verify that mounting hooks and anchor points are rated to handle the spring load before installation. Do not stretch the spring beyond its rated maximum extended length, as permanent deformation or failure may result.
