Value Collection 03308483 Compression Spring 0.48in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308483 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for light-duty mechanical applications requiring reliable, consistent force over a short stroke. With an outside diameter of 0.48 inches and a free length of 2 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 2.5 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 3.62 pounds. The wire diameter measures 0.035 inches, and the solid height is 0.355 inches. This spring is suited for use in equipment assemblies, jigs, fixtures, valves, and other mechanisms where a compact, corrosion-resistant compression element is required. Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals.

This compression spring fits into a hole diameter of 0.5 inches and is sized for applications where a short free length and low load rating are appropriate. Stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or temperature variation. Typical applications include HVAC equipment assemblies, plumbing valve mechanisms, industrial fixtures, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a small-format compression spring.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this type are installed by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals during equipment assembly or repair. Always relieve system pressure and de-energize any associated equipment before servicing spring-loaded components. Use appropriate hand tools and ensure the spring seats fully and squarely in the mating bore or housing before closing the assembly.
