Gardner Spring V34C Extension Spring 0.13 in Od 1.28 Lb

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING V34C is a small-diameter steel extension spring designed for light-load mechanical and industrial applications. It has an outside diameter of 0.13 inches, a free length of 6 inches, and a maximum extended length of 11.46 inches. The wire diameter is 0.0162 inches, and the spring rate is 0.19 lb/in, making it suited for low-force return, tension, or linkage applications. The spring features a galvanized, zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. It is sold in packages of 6 pieces and is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, HVAC service professionals, and mechanical assemblers in a wide range of light-duty applications.

This extension spring fits residential and commercial mechanical assemblies where a small-diameter, low-load tension spring is needed. Typical applications include control linkages, light-duty return mechanisms, door assemblies, damper actuators, and similar components. With an initial tension of 0.10 lb and a maximum work load of 1.28 lb, it handles low-force tension requirements in compact spaces. The galvanized zinc-plated steel construction provides durability in typical indoor mechanical environments.

Designed as a standard small-diameter extension spring for light-load mechanical, HVAC, and industrial applications requiring a 0.13 inch OD steel tension spring with low spring rate.

Installation Notes

Extension springs of this type are typically installed by maintenance technicians or HVAC service professionals working on mechanical linkages and light-duty assemblies. Relieve any tension from connected mechanisms and power down associated equipment before servicing. Ensure spring hooks are fully engaged with mating anchor points before returning the assembly to service. Do not stretch the spring beyond its maximum extended length of 11.46 inches during installation or operation.
