Value Collection 03308566 Compression Spring Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308566 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for use in mechanical assemblies, industrial equipment, and maintenance applications. It features an outside diameter of 0.48 inches, a free length of 2 inches, and a wire diameter of 0.047 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 6.7 pounds per inch and handles a maximum work load of 8.35 pounds. Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or outdoor environments. This part is sold in packages of 10, making it practical for stocking across multiple repair or assembly tasks.

This compression spring fits applications where a controlled push-back force is needed in a confined bore or housing. With a hole diameter fitment of 0.5 inches and a solid height of 0.599 inches, it suits a range of mechanical, HVAC, plumbing valve, and general industrial assemblies. Technicians and maintenance professionals use springs of this specification for valve return mechanisms, latching assemblies, and similar light-load compression tasks. Stainless steel is the preferred material where exposure to moisture or mild chemicals is expected.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or chemical environments
• Outside diameter of 0.48 inches fits standard 0.5-inch bore housings
• Spring rate of 6.7 pounds per inch for predictable, consistent force output
• Maximum work load of 8.35 pounds suits light-duty compression tasks
• Solid height of 0.599 inches allows use in compact assemblies with limited travel
• Packaged in quantities of 10 for shop stocking and multi-unit repairs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression spring for use in mechanical, valve, and general industrial assemblies requiring a 0.48-inch outside diameter and 2-inch free length configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanics, HVAC technicians, or maintenance professionals as part of valve, actuator, or mechanical assembly service. Ensure the mating bore and rod dimensions are verified against the spring outside diameter and solid height before installation. De-energize or depressurize the system before disassembling any spring-loaded component. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height during service.
