Gardner Spring MC065-0190-M Compression Spring 0.354in Od

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING MC065-0190-M is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel with a plain finish. It features a 0.354-inch outside diameter and a free length of 0.748 inches, with a solid height of 0.295 inches. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 33.15 pounds and a spring rate of 18.9 pounds per inch, making it well suited for applications that demand consistent, repeatable force in a compact envelope. End type is closed and ground for stable seating and accurate load transmission. Licensed technicians and mechanical assembly professionals working on HVAC, plumbing, or industrial equipment regularly specify this type of spring for valve, actuator, and control mechanism assemblies.

This spring is appropriate for light-duty to medium-duty compression applications in both residential and commercial equipment. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments, including those found in pool and spa equipment, plumbing valve bodies, and HVAC damper or actuator assemblies. The closed and ground ends provide a flat bearing surface for consistent load distribution. The part ships in a package quantity of five with a minimum order quantity of one package, making it practical for both service stock and single-unit repair needs.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical assembly professionals. Always de-energize or shut off the system before servicing any component containing compression springs under load. Verify spring seating surfaces are clean and free of debris to ensure accurate load transmission. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant codes when replacing springs in safety-critical valve or actuator assemblies.
