Value Collection 06810600 Compression Spring 0.24in Od 2in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810600 is a small-diameter compression spring sold in packs of 10, suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring consistent return force over a short travel distance. The spring measures 0.24 inches outside diameter with a 2-inch free length and a wire diameter of 0.026 inches. It delivers a spring rate of 2.68 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 3.32 pounds. The solid height is 0.576 inches and the recommended hole diameter for housing is 0.25 inches. This type of spring is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, assemblers, and mechanical contractors working on valves, latches, actuators, and similar small-mechanism applications.

This compression spring is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical applications where a compact, low-load return spring is required. Typical use cases include valve assemblies, panel latches, instrument mechanisms, and general industrial tooling. The 10-piece pack format suits bench-stock replenishment for shops and field service kits that require on-hand spares for common spring sizes.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this size are typically installed by maintenance technicians and mechanical assemblers using standard hand tools. Ensure the housing bore and mandrel dimensions are verified against the 0.25 inch hole diameter and 0.24 inch outside diameter before installation to prevent binding or misalignment. De-energize or depressurize any system before replacing internal spring components. Do not stretch or over-compress the spring beyond its solid height during installation.
