Value Collection 06810105 Compression Spring 0.12 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810105 is a small-diameter compression spring suited for light-load mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, and precision hardware applications. With an outside diameter of 0.12 inches and a free length of 0.5 inches, this spring is designed for use in confined spaces where precise force control is required. The spring delivers a spring rate of 8.42 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 1.85 pounds, making it appropriate for low-force return, retention, or preload functions. Wire diameter measures 0.016 inches. Sold in a package of 10 units, this part suits maintenance shops, assembly lines, and mechanical service professionals who need reliable small-format springs on hand.

This compression spring is used in a wide range of light-duty mechanical and electromechanical applications including small appliances, electronic enclosures, valve mechanisms, pneumatic assemblies, and general-purpose hardware. Its compact form factor makes it a practical fit for OEM assembly work, bench repair, and field service situations where a small, consistent spring force is needed. Mechanical technicians, instrument repair techs, and precision assembly professionals are the typical end users for this spring format.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for light-load mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.12 inch outside diameter and 0.5 inch free length form factor.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or assembly professionals during equipment repair or OEM build. Confirm that the mating bore or guide pin matches the specified hole diameter of 0.125 inches before installation. Ensure the spring is fully seated and not cocked or side-loaded during assembly, as misalignment will reduce effective load capacity and service life. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height of 0.207 inches during operation.
