With an outside diameter of 0.58 inches and a wire diameter of 0.072 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 6.57 lb\/in and a maximum work load of 21.62 lb. The overall free length is 4 inches, and the maximum extended length reaches 6.52 inches. An initial tension of 5.8 lb must be overcome before the spring begins to deflect. It is suited for mechanical assemblies, HVAC damper linkages, industrial equipment, and other applications requiring reliable return force in corrosive or washdown environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis extension spring is applicable in residential and light commercial settings where corrosion resistance is a priority. The stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice for outdoor installations, humid mechanical rooms, pool equipment enclosures, and similar environments. Technicians in HVAC, plumbing, and pool service regularly use extension springs of this type in damper actuators, access panel latches, and tensioning mechanisms. Each package contains 3 pieces, making it straightforward to stock spares for routine maintenance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion in humid and outdoor service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 6.57 lb\/in provides predictable, linear return force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 21.62 lb with an initial tension of 5.8 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.58 inches fits compact mechanical assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain finish with no coating for direct use out of the package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 3 pieces to support stocking and field repairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or general-use extension spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.58-inch OD spring with a 6.57 lb\/in spring rate and a maximum extended length of 6.52 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtension springs should be installed by qualified technicians familiar with mechanical tensioning components. Always de-energize or relieve system pressure before removing or installing springs to prevent sudden release of stored energy. Use appropriate spring hooks or tooling to stretch the spring to its working length without exceeding the maximum extended length of 6.52 inches. Exceeding the maximum work load can permanently deform the spring and cause premature failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21.62 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.57 lb\/in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Tension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.8 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.58 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.072 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Free Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Extended Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.52 inches\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\u003eNumber of Pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 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: V5C-SS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52110352482610,"sku":"V5C-SS","price":25.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1fba9c347f2bc7acc8d0aceb69c61ff7.jpg?v=1790076184","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-v5c-ss-extension-spring-21-62-lb-max-load","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
