Value Collection 03308228 Compression Spring Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308228 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for use in mechanical assemblies, industrial equipment, and trade applications requiring reliable return or load-bearing force. With a 0.36-inch outside diameter and a 1.5-inch free length, this spring delivers a maximum work load of 7.49 pounds and a spring rate of 8.91 pounds per inch. The 0.041-inch wire diameter and stainless steel construction offer corrosion resistance suitable for demanding environments. Mechanical technicians, HVAC service professionals, and industrial maintenance personnel will find this spring appropriate for a wide range of light-duty compression applications.

This compression spring fits into mounting holes up to 0.375 inches in diameter and compresses to a solid height of 0.561 inches. It is well suited for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies where consistent spring force and compact dimensions are required. Typical applications include valve assemblies, actuator mechanisms, and equipment panels across HVAC, plumbing, and general industrial service work.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression spring replacement for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.36-inch outside diameter and 1.5-inch free length in stainless steel construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical or maintenance technicians using standard hand tools. Always de-energize and depressurize the assembly before servicing any spring-loaded components. Verify that the mounting hole diameter and bore depth are compatible with the spring dimensions before installation. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height during installation or operation.
