Value Collection 06810014 Compression Spring 0.12 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810014 is a small-diameter compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a compact, precise return force. With an outside diameter of 0.12 inches and a free length of 0.25 inches, this spring is designed for tight-clearance applications where space is at a premium. The wire diameter measures 0.012 inches, and the spring delivers a rate of 6.31 pounds per inch with a maximum working load of 0.83 pounds. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working on instruments, valves, switches, or small mechanical devices will find this spring sized for precision work. Each order ships in a package of 10 units.

This compression spring is well suited for use in residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies, including small valve bodies, electrical switches, instrument panels, and precision tooling. Its hole diameter fit of 0.125 inches makes it straightforward to seat in a drilled or bored pocket, and its solid height of 0.081 inches defines the minimum compressed stack length for design clearance calculations. Typical users include maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and instrumentation specialists working with compact spring-loaded mechanisms.

Key Features

• Outside diameter of 0.12 inches for tight-clearance installations
• Free length of 0.25 inches with a solid height of 0.081 inches
• Wire diameter of 0.012 inches for fine, precise spring geometry
• Spring rate of 6.31 pounds per inch for predictable, linear load response
• Maximum working load of 0.83 pounds
• Packaged in quantities of 10 to support bench stock and small-run assembly needs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for use in small mechanical assemblies, instruments, switches, and valve applications where a 0.12-inch OD and 0.25-inch free length meet design requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or mechanical technician during assembly or maintenance of spring-loaded mechanisms. Ensure the mating bore or pocket diameter is appropriate for the 0.125-inch hole diameter spec before seating the spring. De-energize or fully depressurize any system before replacing internal spring components. Avoid over-compressing the spring beyond its solid height of 0.081 inches, as this can cause permanent set and loss of rated load characteristics.
