With a 0.975 inch outside diameter and a 2.5 inch free length, this spring delivers a rated spring rate of 4.9 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 9.16 pounds. The 0.062 inch wire diameter and stainless steel construction make it suitable for environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. Mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals install compression springs like this in fluid control valves, HVAC equipment dampers, plumbing fixtures, and general mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring is sized to fit inside a hole diameter of 1.0 inch, making it compatible with standard bored housings and valve bodies of that dimension. It is well suited for light-duty mechanical applications in residential and light commercial equipment where a consistent spring rate and moderate load capacity are required. The stainless steel material performs across a broad temperature range and resists moisture-related degradation, making it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor service conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.975 inch outside diameter fits precisely within 1.0 inch bore housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 inch free length with a compressed solid height of 0.418 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 4.9 pounds per inch for predictable, linear deflection response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum work load rated at 9.16 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.062 inch wire diameter for consistent coil geometry and load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a compression spring with a 0.975 inch outside diameter, 2.5 inch free length, and 1.0 inch recommended hole diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompression springs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with the equipment being serviced. Always de-energize and depressurize the system before disassembling any spring-loaded valve, damper, or mechanical assembly. Verify the installed spring rate and load capacity match the original equipment specification before reassembly. Confirm the spring seats fully and squarely against both bearing surfaces to prevent lateral deflection under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.975 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.418 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.9 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9.16 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Hole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03309176\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714163441970,"sku":"03309176","price":17.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d94d3f91ff5e6b1fbf8bd91f565e9ee0.jpg?v=1788497045","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-03309176-compression-spring-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
