Value Collection 03308103 Compression Spring 0.3in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308103 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for light-duty mechanical and industrial applications. It measures 0.3 inches in outside diameter and 1.5 inches in free length, with a wire diameter of 0.047 inches. The spring delivers a maximum work load of 12.87 pounds and a spring rate of 22.52 pounds per inch, making it suitable for consistent, repeatable force requirements. The solid height is 0.847 inches. Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet, humid, or chemically exposed environments. This spring is sold in a package of 10 units.

This compression spring is used in a wide range of mechanical assemblies where precise spring force and compact sizing are required. Typical applications include machine components, valve assemblies, tool fixtures, and general industrial equipment. The small OD of 0.3 inches makes it suitable for installations with tight clearance requirements or where a guide hole diameter of approximately 0.313 inches is present. It is commonly specified by machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers working in light industrial or OEM production environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.3 inch OD and 1.5 inch free length stainless steel spring. Consult engineering specifications to confirm spring rate and load requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or machinists during assembly or maintenance of mechanical equipment. Ensure the guide hole or shaft clearance matches the spring OD and wire diameter before seating the spring. De-energize or depressurize any system before replacing a compression spring in a live assembly. Avoid compressing the spring beyond its solid height to prevent permanent set or fatigue failure.
