Value Collection 03308699 Compression Spring 0.6in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308699 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for light-duty mechanical applications requiring consistent, repeatable force over a compact range of travel. It features a 0.6 inch outside diameter, a 1 inch free length, and a 0.054 inch wire diameter. The spring delivers a spring rate of 17.39 lb/in with a maximum work load of 4.6 pounds. Its stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for environments exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor conditions. Maintenance technicians, assemblers, and field service professionals across HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical trades commonly use springs of this type in valve assemblies, actuators, latches, and similar mechanisms.

This compression spring is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a small-diameter, short-travel spring is needed to maintain preload or return force. Typical installation scenarios include valve return mechanisms, control linkages, panel latches, and small actuator assemblies. The 0.625 inch hole diameter clearance specification makes it easy to seat over standard guide pins or within bored pockets. Sold in packages of 10 units, this spring is practical for stocking in a service van or shop for on-demand repairs.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments
• Spring rate of 17.39 lb/in provides consistent, predictable deflection under load
• Maximum work load of 4.6 pounds suits light-duty mechanical return and preload applications
• 0.054 inch wire diameter and 0.6 inch OD allow fitment in tight clearance assemblies
• Solid height of 0.324 inches limits over-compression in close-tolerance installations
• Packaged in quantities of 10 for efficient shop and field stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or upgrade compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.6 inch outside diameter and 1 inch free length with a 0.625 inch hole diameter clearance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with the host assembly. Always de-energize or depressurize the system before disassembling any spring-loaded component. Verify that the guide pin or bore diameter is compatible with the 0.6 inch OD and 0.625 inch hole diameter specification before seating the spring. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height of 0.324 inches, as doing so can cause permanent set and reduce service life.
