Value Collection 06810402 Compression Spring 0.18 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810402 is a small-diameter compression spring designed for light-duty mechanical assemblies where precise load and rate control are required. With an outside diameter of 0.18 inches and a free length of 0.75 inches, this spring delivers a maximum work load of 4.33 pounds and a spring rate of 12.24 pounds per inch. The wire diameter is 0.026 inches. It is suited for use in instruments, valves, latches, and similar compact mechanisms. Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, machinists, and assembly professionals working on mechanical or electromechanical components. Sold in a package of 10 units.

This compression spring fits applications where a small form factor and consistent linear spring rate are needed. Typical use cases include light-force actuation, component retention, and spring-loaded contact assemblies in residential, commercial, and industrial equipment. The solid height of 0.382 inches and hole diameter of 0.188 inches help define minimum compressed clearance and guide-pin compatibility for installation planning.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression spring replacement or original-fit component for compact mechanical assemblies requiring an 0.18-inch outside diameter and 0.75-inch free length spring.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this size are typically installed by hand or with small needle-nose pliers during mechanical assembly or servicing. Ensure the guide pin or bore diameter aligns with the spring hole diameter of 0.188 inches to prevent buckling under load. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height of 0.382 inches during installation or operation. Verify the spring rate and max load match the design requirements of the assembly before installation.
