Gardner Spring SS-19M Utility Compression Spring 0.375 in Od

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING SS-19M is a utility compression spring manufactured from stainless steel with a plain finish. It measures 0.375 inches in outside diameter and 1.5 inches in free length, with a wire diameter of 0.028 inches. The spring delivers a maximum load of 0.76 pounds and a spring rate of 1.83 pounds per inch, making it suitable for light-duty mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance and consistent return force are required. The closed end type provides stable seating against flat surfaces. This spring is commonly installed by mechanical technicians, HVAC service professionals, and industrial maintenance personnel working on equipment requiring precise spring tension in compact spaces.

This utility compression spring fits a wide range of light-duty mechanical and industrial applications. Its stainless steel construction and plain finish make it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture or mild corrosive conditions. Typical installation scenarios include valve assemblies, control linkages, and small mechanical components found in HVAC equipment, plumbing fixtures, and general industrial machinery. The compact OD and free length suit confined mounting locations where standard hardware springs may not fit. Sold in packages of 6 with a minimum order quantity of 1 package.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• Closed end type ensures stable, flat seating against mating surfaces
• 0.375 inch outside diameter fits compact mechanical cavities
• Spring rate of 1.83 pounds per inch delivers predictable, consistent return force
• Maximum load rating of 0.76 pounds suits light-duty compression applications
• Solid height of 0.38 inches limits deflection and protects against coil bind

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service spare for light-duty compression spring applications requiring a 0.375 inch outside diameter and 1.5 inch free length with closed ends in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified mechanical or HVAC technicians. Ensure all energy sources to the equipment are de-energized and any pressurized systems are relieved before replacing compression springs. Verify the spring seat and bore dimensions match the OD and wire diameter specifications before installation to prevent misalignment or premature fatigue. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height during service.
