With an outside diameter of 0.64 inches and a wire diameter of 0.08 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 8.45 lb\/in and a maximum work load of 26.4 lb. The overall free length is 4.0 inches, and the maximum extended length reaches 6.38 inches. Initial tension is rated at 3.7 lb, meaning the spring resists opening until that threshold is exceeded. Sold in a package of 3 pieces, this part is suited for mechanical assemblies, industrial equipment, and trade applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant extension spring is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical systems where tensile spring force is needed. Typical install scenarios include HVAC damper linkages, panel latches, door assemblies, and general mechanical tension applications. The stainless steel construction makes it a suitable choice in environments with moisture exposure or where corrosion resistance is a priority. The plain finish requires no additional surface treatment before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in humid or wet environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 8.45 lb\/in for predictable, linear tensile force output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 26.4 lb suits a range of light-duty mechanical tension applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial tension of 3.7 lb keeps the spring closed until threshold force is applied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 0.64 inch outside diameter fits tight mechanical clearances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged in a quantity of 3 pieces per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-profile extension spring suitable for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.64 inch OD, 4.0 inch free length, and 8.45 lb\/in spring rate in a stainless steel construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or HVAC service professionals. De-energize and lock out any associated equipment before removing or installing tension springs to prevent unexpected release of stored energy. Use appropriate pliers or spring hooks rated for the load; never overstretch the spring beyond its maximum extended length of 6.38 inches, as this will permanently deform the coils. Verify hook orientation and attachment point clearance before returning the assembly to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Free Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.45 lb\/in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 26.4 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.7 lb\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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.28 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: V4C-SS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51995197702450,"sku":"V4C-SS","price":25.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d490942e8446baf8224bb93733148e47.jpg?v=1789992534","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-v4c-ss-extension-spring-26-4-lb-0-64-in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
