Value Collection 03308897 Compression Spring 0.72in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03308897 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for general mechanical and industrial applications. With an outside diameter of 0.72 inches and a free length of 2 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 15.81 lb/in and supports a maximum work load of 18.59 pounds. The 0.072-inch wire diameter provides consistent coil geometry and reliable elastic return under axial compressive loads. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and maintains performance in wet or mildly caustic environments. Maintenance technicians, machine builders, and MRO professionals typically install this type of spring in assemblies requiring controlled return force.

This compression spring suits a wide range of residential, commercial, and light industrial applications including valve assemblies, pneumatic and hydraulic components, latching mechanisms, and general machine hardware. Its 0.75-inch hole diameter fit and 0.682-inch solid height make it well suited for confined spring pockets where precise dimensional control is required. Sold in packages of 10, it is appropriate for both single-unit repairs and small batch production runs.

Key Features

• Outside diameter of 0.72 inches fits standard 0.75-inch bore pockets
• Spring rate of 15.81 lb/in for predictable, linear load response
• Maximum work load of 18.59 pounds before reaching solid height
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation
• Solid height of 0.682 inches limits over-compression in tight assemblies
• Packaged in quantities of 10 for MRO stock or production use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.72-inch outside diameter, 2-inch free length, and a spring rate near 15.81 lb/in.

Installation Notes

Compression springs should be installed with the assembly fully de-energized and depressurized before service. Confirm the bore diameter and pocket depth match spring dimensions before installation to prevent binding or over-compression. Use appropriate spring installation tools to seat the spring without distorting the coils. Inspect mating components for wear or corrosion that could reduce spring service life.
