Value Collection 03309101 Compression Spring 0.85in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 03309101 is a stainless steel compression spring designed for general mechanical and industrial applications requiring reliable, repeatable load resistance. With an outside diameter of 0.85 inches and a free length of 2 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 17.58 lb/in and supports a maximum work load of 21.28 pounds. The 0.08-inch wire diameter and stainless steel construction provide corrosion resistance in both dry and mildly wet environments. Technicians and assemblers working in HVAC equipment, plumbing assemblies, and light industrial machinery commonly specify compression springs of this profile for valve, latch, and tensioning applications.

This compression spring fits into a mounting hole diameter of 0.875 inches and compresses to a solid height of 0.64 inches, making it suitable for installations with limited travel clearance. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies where consistent spring force is needed across repeated cycles. The stainless steel material resists oxidation in environments where mild moisture exposure is likely, including HVAC cabinet hardware, plumbing access components, and general MRO use.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in moist or chemically active environments
• Spring rate of 17.58 lb/in provides predictable, linear load response
• Maximum work load of 21.28 pounds suits valve, latch, and tensioning assemblies
• Outside diameter of 0.85 inches fits standard 0.875-inch mounting holes
• Solid height of 0.64 inches accommodates tight axial clearance designs
• Sold in a package quantity of 5, supporting small-batch repairs and installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-profile compression spring for general mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing assembly applications requiring a 0.85-inch OD, 2-inch free length form factor.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this type are installed by mechanical assemblers and service technicians across HVAC, plumbing, and light industrial trades. Before replacing or installing, de-energize or depressurize the assembly and follow all applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines. Use appropriate spring-loading tools when compressing the spring during installation to avoid uncontrolled release. Confirm that the installed spring is fully seated within the guide bore before reassembling the surrounding components.
