Value Collection 03307956 Compression Spring Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03307956 is a small-diameter compression spring manufactured from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long service life. It measures 0.24 inches outside diameter with a free length of 1.5 inches and a wire diameter of 0.026 inches. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 3 pounds per inch and handles a maximum work load of 2.77 pounds. The solid height is 0.441 inches. This spring is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, and equipment maintenance applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant compression spring is required.

This compression spring is used in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies, light industrial equipment, HVAC components, instrumentation panels, and general maintenance and repair applications. Its small outside diameter of 0.24 inches fits into a hole diameter of 0.25 inches, making it appropriate for guided-spring installations in tight clearances. Mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and field service professionals typically source this spring as a replacement or original-installation component.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments
• 0.24 inch outside diameter fits a 0.25 inch guide hole for secure, guided installation
• 3 lb/in spring rate delivers consistent, predictable linear force response
• 2.77 pound maximum work load rated for light-duty compression applications
• 0.026 inch wire diameter maintains structural integrity at full compression
• Solid height of 0.441 inches limits overtravel and protects adjacent components

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24 inch outside diameter and 1.5 inch free length stainless steel spring with a guided hole fit of 0.25 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians as part of a component assembly or repair. Before replacing or installing the spring, ensure the assembly is fully de-energized and depressurized where applicable. Verify the mating bore or guide pin dimensions against the spring outside diameter and hole diameter to confirm proper fit before final assembly. Avoid compressing the spring beyond its solid height to prevent permanent deformation or damage to surrounding components.
