Value Collection 06810865 Compression Spring 0.3in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810865 is a small-diameter compression spring intended for light-duty mechanical applications where consistent return force and compact geometry are required. With an outside diameter of 0.3 inches and a free length of 0.5 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 9.38 lb/in and supports a maximum work load of 3 pounds. Wire diameter measures 0.026 inches, and solid height is 0.14 inches. These springs are typically installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and field service pros working on valve assemblies, tool mechanisms, latching hardware, or similar components requiring a precisely rated compression element.

This compression spring is suited for use in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies where a low-profile, small-bore spring is needed. The 0.3-inch outside diameter is sized to fit a 0.313-inch hole diameter, making it straightforward to drop into standard spring pockets or guide bores. Applications commonly include HVAC damper linkages, plumbing valve internals, electrical panel latches, and general industrial tooling. This SKU is sold in a pack of 10, which suits service kits, bench stock, and repetitive assembly work.

Key Features

• Outside diameter of 0.3 inches fits a standard 0.313-inch hole diameter
• Spring rate of 9.38 lb/in provides predictable, linear return force
• Maximum work load rated at 3 pounds for light-duty compression applications
• Compact free length of 0.5 inches and solid height of 0.14 inches for tight-clearance installs
• Wire diameter of 0.026 inches for fine-pitch coil geometry
• Sold in a 10-pack for service stock or repetitive assembly use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.3-inch outside diameter and 0.5-inch free length. Verify spring rate, load, and dimensional requirements against your specific application before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or mechanical assemblers. Ensure the mating bore or guide pin is clean and free of debris before seating the spring. Relieve any stored mechanical energy in the assembly before removing or replacing a compression spring. Confirm the solid height and free length are compatible with the travel range of your application to prevent coil bind.
