It measures 0.472 inches in outside diameter and 0.709 inches in free length, with a solid height of 0.433 inches. The spring delivers a maximum working load of 274.67 pounds and a spring rate of 255.54 inch-pounds per inch, making it well-suited for applications that demand consistent force response and corrosion resistance. Closed and ground ends provide stable seating and uniform load distribution across the compression cycle. This part is installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and industrial equipment specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring is used in precision mechanical assemblies where controlled load and deflection characteristics are required. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or elevated temperatures where carbon steel springs would degrade. Typical install scenarios include industrial machinery, HVAC equipment components, fluid control valves, and general-purpose mechanical subassemblies requiring a compact, high-load spring with consistent performance. The small form factor suits tight-clearance applications where a 0.472-inch OD fits within confined spring pockets or guides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum working load of 274.67 pounds supports high-force applications in a compact envelope\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 255.54 inch-pounds per inch provides predictable, linear deflection response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed and ground ends ensure flat, stable seating and consistent load transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.472-inch outside diameter fits standard spring pockets and guide rods in that size range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlain finish maintains tight dimensional tolerances without adding coating thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision compression spring suitable for mechanical assemblies, valve components, and industrial equipment requiring a 0.472-inch OD closed-and-ground stainless steel compression spring with a 0.709-inch free length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or assembly personnel using standard hand tools. De-energize or depressurize any system before replacing a compression spring to prevent uncontrolled release of stored energy. Verify spring pocket depth and guide rod diameter against the solid height of 0.433 inches and the 0.472-inch OD before installation to confirm proper fit. Inspect mating surfaces for burrs or debris that could affect seating of the closed and ground ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.472 inches (12.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.709 inches (18.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.433 inches (11.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0787 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 274.67 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 255.54 inch-pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed and Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision\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: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: MC075-0180-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972473848114,"sku":"MC075-0180-S","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c96184cd93871d10bc7bc2b42d9271ae_eec58f50-0475-4c24-96c0-2bcb775d4237.jpg?v=1789969540","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-mc075-0180-s-compression-spring-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
