Value Collection 06810469 Compression Spring 0.24 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810469 is a small-diameter compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, tooling fixtures, and precision equipment. It features an outside diameter of 0.24 inches, a free length of 0.875 inches, and a wire diameter of 0.02 inches. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 3.16 lb/in and supports a maximum work load of 1.77 pounds. These springs are sold in a package quantity of 10, making them practical for bench stock, repair kits, or production assembly applications. Technicians and assemblers working in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades will find this spring useful wherever a compact return or preload element is required.

This compression spring is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a small, low-load spring is needed in a confined space. Typical uses include valve assemblies, latch mechanisms, tooling jigs, electrical switch components, and similar precision hardware. The 0.25-inch hole diameter clearance and 0.196-inch solid height make it suitable for applications with tight axial and radial constraints. It is commonly stocked by maintenance technicians and assemblers who require a reliable small-format compression spring for recurring repair or production tasks.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.24-inch OD and 0.875-inch free length form factor.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this size are typically installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, or field service professionals. Confirm the bore or guide post dimensions match the 0.25-inch hole diameter clearance and 0.24-inch OD before installation. De-energize or depressurize any assembly before replacing internal spring components. Avoid overcompressing the spring beyond its solid height of 0.196 inches, as this can cause permanent set and loss of rated load.
