Gardner Spring MC103-0535-M Compression Spring 0.555in Od

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING MC103-0535-M is a precision compression spring manufactured from stainless steel with a plain finish. It features a 0.555-inch outside diameter, a free length of 2.106 inches, and a solid height of 0.661 inches. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 135.33 pounds and a spring rate of 20.44 inch-pounds per inch, making it well suited for applications that demand consistent, repeatable force in a compact package. Closed and ground ends provide stable seating and uniform load distribution. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical equipment service professionals install this type of spring in actuators, valves, and related mechanical assemblies.

This compression spring is appropriate for use in light-duty to medium-duty mechanical systems where precise spring force control is required. Typical applications include valve actuators, flow control assemblies, pressure-relief mechanisms, and other spring-loaded components found in HVAC equipment, plumbing systems, and industrial machinery. The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments. Sold in packages of 5, this spring is a practical stock item for service contractors and maintenance teams that replace springs as part of routine component rebuilds.

Installation Notes

Installation of compression springs in valve or actuator assemblies should be performed by a qualified technician. De-energize or depressurize the system fully before disassembling any spring-loaded component. Inspect the spring seat and bore for wear or corrosion before installing the replacement spring. Follow all applicable equipment manufacturer service procedures and relevant mechanical codes during reassembly.
