Constructed from stainless steel with a galvanized finish, it offers corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor service environments. The spring measures 0.328 inches in outside diameter with a 12-inch free length and a 0.041-inch wire diameter. A spring rate of 1.8 pounds per inch makes it well-suited for light-to-moderate load applications. Maintenance technicians, mechanical contractors, and equipment assemblers typically work with this type of spring across industrial, HVAC, and general mechanical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCut-to-length compression springs are used wherever a standard fixed-length spring does not match the required travel or installation envelope. This spring can be trimmed to a specific working length on site, reducing the need to stock multiple fixed-length SKUs. Typical applications include control linkages, valve assemblies, equipment latches, and tension-management mechanisms in both residential and light commercial equipment. Its gray color and galvanized stainless steel construction make it identifiable and durable across a range of service conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut-to-length design allows field trimming to exact working length requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.328-inch outside diameter fits standard spring pockets and guides in that size range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.041-inch wire diameter provides consistent coil geometry along the full 12-inch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.8 pounds per inch spring rate suits light-to-moderate load and deflection applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction with galvanized finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGray finish aids quick visual identification during service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service stock compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.328-inch outside diameter cut-to-length spring at a 1.8 pounds per inch spring rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance personnel familiar with spring-loaded assemblies. Before servicing any spring-loaded mechanism, relieve all stored mechanical energy and de-energize associated electrical or pneumatic systems. When cutting this spring to length, use proper spring-cutting tools to maintain square ends and consistent coil pitch. Consult applicable equipment service documentation for correct compressed length and load specifications before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cut-to-Length Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.328 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.041 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.8 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.98 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\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: M-8C19C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52102673924402,"sku":"M-8C19C","price":17.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4f3ddf162d82ef8b85b93af0e0b92eda.jpg?v=1790070647","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-m-8c19c-compression-spring-0-328in-od-12in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
