Gardner Spring GT2814018-MR Torsion Spring 6 Coils

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING GT2814018-MR is a right-hand wound torsion spring engineered for precision mechanical assemblies where controlled rotational force is required. Built from steel with a 0.028-inch wire diameter and a 0.249-inch coil outside diameter, this spring delivers 0.552 inch-pounds of torque at leg length. The 180-degree deflection angle allows for a full half-rotation of stored energy release, making it well-suited for light-duty mechanisms that require consistent return force. Licensed trades and mechanical assembly technicians working on HVAC equipment, controls, damper linkages, and similar mechanical systems will find this spring a dependable OEM-style replacement or new-installation component.

This torsion spring is sized for compact applications with a maximum tool size of 0.140 inches and a rod size of 0.140 inches (3.56 millimeters). It fits within equipment where small, precisely wound torsion elements are specified. Typical use cases include control linkages, damper actuator returns, valve mechanisms, and light-duty rotational assemblies found in residential and commercial HVAC systems and related mechanical equipment. The right-hand wind direction must be confirmed against the assembly drawing before installation.

Key Features

• 180-degree deflection angle for half-rotation energy storage and release
• Right-hand wind direction for proper torque orientation in compatible assemblies
• 0.028-inch wire diameter with 6 coils for consistent spring rate
• 0.552 inch-pounds torque at leg length for light-duty mechanical applications
• Steel construction for durability in mechanical control environments
• Maximum tool and rod size of 0.140 inches for precise fit in small assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-specification torsion spring for compact mechanical assemblies requiring a right-hand wound spring with a 0.249-inch coil outside diameter and 180-degree deflection angle.

Installation Notes

Installation of torsion springs should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with spring-loaded assemblies. Always relieve any stored mechanical energy in the assembly before removing or installing torsion springs. Confirm the wind direction (right-hand) and deflection angle match the assembly specification before installation. Use the appropriate mandrel or tool sized to 0.140 inches or smaller to avoid distorting the coils during installation.
