Gardner Spring V35C-SS Extension Spring 51.56 Lb

Product Description

The GARDNER SPRING V35C-SS is a stainless steel extension spring rated for a maximum work load of 51.56 pounds and a spring rate of 9.67 lb/in. It measures 8 inches in overall length with a 0.96 inch outside diameter and a wire diameter of 0.1205 inches. The spring extends to a maximum length of 12.73 inches under load. Initial tension is 17.20 pounds, meaning the coils resist opening until that threshold is overcome. This part is used in mechanical assemblies where a pulling or tensioning force is required. Licensed tradespeople and equipment technicians install it during service or fabrication of machinery, HVAC equipment, or industrial components.

This extension spring suits applications in commercial and residential mechanical systems that require a compact, corrosion-resistant tension element. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or where chemical resistance is a factor. With a maximum extended length of 12.73 inches and a consistent spring rate, it is suited for use in actuator assemblies, door mechanisms, damper linkages, or similar tensioning applications. Verify dimensional and load requirements against the assembly spec before installation.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction with plain finish for corrosion resistance
• Maximum work load of 51.56 pounds for reliable tensioning duty
• Spring rate of 9.67 lb/in for predictable, linear load response
• Initial tension of 17.20 pounds prevents coil separation under light loads
• Outside diameter of 0.96 inches and wire diameter of 0.1205 inches for compact fitment
• Maximum extended length of 12.73 inches from an 8 inch free length

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit extension spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.96 inch OD, 8 inch free-length tension spring with a 51.56 pound maximum work load rating.

Installation Notes

Extension springs store energy under tension and must be handled with appropriate eye and hand protection during removal and installation. De-energize or relieve load from the assembly before servicing the spring to prevent sudden release. Use proper spring installation tools to seat hooks or loops without overstretching the spring beyond its maximum extended length. Verify the replacement spring rate and load capacity match the original equipment specification before placing the assembly back in service.
