Value Collection 03308632 Compression Spring Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308632 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for industrial and mechanical applications requiring reliable, corrosion-resistant force resistance. With a 0.48-inch outside diameter and a 1.5-inch free length, this spring delivers a spring rate of 25.56 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 17.96 pounds. The 0.062-inch wire diameter provides consistent deflection characteristics under repeated cycling. This type of spring is typically installed by maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and equipment service professionals across a wide range of light to medium-duty mechanical systems.

This compression spring is suited for use in equipment assemblies, valve mechanisms, tooling fixtures, and general-purpose machine components where a small-diameter stainless spring is required. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or temperature variation. The 0.5-inch hole diameter clearance and 0.711-inch solid height support straightforward integration into standard spring pockets and guide pins. Sold in a package quantity of 10.

Key Features

• 0.48-inch outside diameter fits standard small-bore spring seats and guide assemblies
• 25.56 pounds per inch spring rate provides predictable, linear force response
• 17.96-pound maximum work load supports light to medium mechanical load applications
• 0.062-inch wire diameter for consistent coil spacing and deflection
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments
• 0.711-inch solid height allows compact installation in space-constrained assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression spring for mechanical assemblies, tooling, valve bodies, and equipment requiring a 0.48-inch OD stainless steel compression spring with a 1.5-inch free length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanical technicians or maintenance personnel. Relieve all system pressure and de-energize any associated equipment before removing or installing compression springs. Use appropriate spring installation tools to avoid overcompressing the spring beyond its solid height during assembly. Verify the mating hole diameter and guide pin clearances against the 0.5-inch hole diameter specification before installation.
