With an outside diameter of 0.42 inches, a free length of 1 inch, and a wire diameter of 0.035 inches, this spring fits into tight clearance holes and assemblies where precise spring rates matter. The spring rate of 6.19 pounds per inch and maximum load capacity of 4.17 pounds make it well-suited for instrumentation, valve assemblies, small actuators, and similar components. Maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and equipment service professionals typically work with springs of this type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring is applicable across a broad range of light industrial and trade-service scenarios, including HVAC control mechanisms, plumbing valve components, electrical panel hardware, and general mechanical assemblies. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion in humid or wet service environments, making it a dependable choice for both indoor and outdoor equipment. The solid height of 0.247 inches ensures the spring compresses within a controlled travel range, preventing coil bind in properly designed assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation in demanding service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 6.19 pounds per inch provides consistent, predictable force throughout travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutside diameter of 0.42 inches fits a recommended hole diameter of 0.438 inches (7\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 4.17 pounds with a compact 1-inch free length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWire diameter of 0.035 inches for precise, tightly wound coil geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid height of 0.247 inches limits travel and prevents coil bind in matched assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose compression spring suitable for use in light mechanical assemblies, control components, and equipment requiring a 0.42-inch OD spring with a 1-inch free length and 6.19 pounds-per-inch rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or equipment service professionals using standard hand tools. Ensure the mating bore or guide rod is dimensioned to the recommended hole diameter of 0.438 inches for proper seating. De-energize or depressurize any system before replacing internal spring components. Avoid over-compressing the spring beyond its solid height of 0.247 inches, as doing so can cause permanent set or coil damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.42 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.19 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.17 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.247 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.438 inches (7\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03308335\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720770847026,"sku":"03308335","price":17.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c348e9499a1c53e179603a27087a0b51.jpg?v=1788568928","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-03308335-compression-spring-0-42in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
