Value Collection 06810097 Compression Spring 0.12 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810097 is a small-diameter compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, precision instruments, and general industrial applications. With an outside diameter of 0.12 inches and a free length of 0.375 inches, this spring is designed for tight-clearance installations where compact size and consistent force are required. The wire diameter measures 0.016 inches, supporting a maximum work load of 1.85 pounds and delivering a spring rate of 11.65 pounds per inch. Mechanical technicians, assemblers, and maintenance professionals install this spring in applications that demand repeatable deflection characteristics within a small footprint.

This compression spring is appropriate for use in light-load mechanical systems including instrumentation, valves, latches, switches, and small actuators. It fits into bores sized for a 0.125-inch hole diameter. The spring is sold in a package quantity of 10 units, making it practical for bench-stock or small-batch service use. Its compact solid height of 0.163 inches allows for shallow cavity installations.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.12-inch outside diameter and 0.375-inch free length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical assemblers or maintenance technicians using hand tools. Verify bore and pilot dimensions before installation to ensure correct seating and alignment. Avoid overcompressing the spring beyond its solid height of 0.163 inches, as doing so can cause permanent set and reduce service life. Power down or de-energize any associated assembly before servicing components that contain compression springs.
