Hillman Fasteners 540114 Compression Spring 38 12-pack

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 540114 is a Number 38 compression spring sold in a pack of 12. Compression springs store and release mechanical energy under axial load, pushing back against compressive force along their central axis. This spring follows a standard coil design and is constructed from durable steel, making it suitable for general-purpose mechanical assemblies. Technicians and tradespeople across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and industrial service work keep compression springs on hand for valve actuators, equipment latches, pressure relief mechanisms, and similar hardware applications. The 12-unit pack supports job-site restocking.

This compression spring is well suited for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical applications found in both residential and commercial service environments. Common uses include equipment enclosures, valve assemblies, control linkages, and general fastener or component retention tasks. Because these are general-purpose springs, they fit into a broad range of maintenance, repair, and fabrication scenarios encountered during routine service calls. The poly bag packaging keeps the springs organized and protected on a service vehicle or in a parts inventory.

Key Features

• Standard coil compression spring design for conventional axial-load applications
• Constructed from durable steel for reliable mechanical performance
• Sold as a 12-pack in a poly bag for convenient inventory stocking
• General-purpose sizing suitable for a variety of mechanical assemblies
• Compact form factor fits into tight component spaces typical in trade equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement compression spring suitable for a wide range of mechanical assemblies and equipment types where a standard coil compression spring is specified.

Installation Notes

Compression springs are installed by qualified technicians as part of mechanical assemblies in valves, latches, linkages, and similar components. Always de-energize and depressurize the equipment or system before removing or replacing internal springs. Use appropriate hand tools and eye protection when compressing or releasing spring tension. Verify spring sizing and load rating against the original equipment specification before installation.
