Value Collection 06810972 Compression Spring 0.3 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06810972 is a compression spring designed for general mechanical and industrial applications requiring consistent, repeatable load resistance over a defined travel range. This spring features a 0.3-inch outside diameter and a 1.5-inch free length, with a wire diameter of 0.032 inches. It delivers a spring rate of 6.04 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 5.35 pounds. The solid height is 0.478 inches, and the recommended hole diameter for installation is 0.313 inches. These springs are sold in packages of 10 and are suited for use by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and equipment service professionals.

This compression spring fits a wide range of light-duty mechanical applications where precise spring force is required within a compact form factor. Typical use cases include small equipment assemblies, valve returns, switch mechanisms, and instrument components. The consistent spring rate makes it reliable in repetitive-cycle environments. It is appropriate for both original equipment assembly and field replacement applications across industrial, commercial, and light mechanical service settings.

Key Features

• 0.3-inch outside diameter for fitment in standard spring pockets and bore applications
• 6.04 lb/in spring rate provides consistent, predictable load response
• 5.35-pound maximum work load suitable for light-duty mechanical assemblies
• 0.032-inch wire diameter for compact, low-profile compression applications
• 0.478-inch solid height allows controlled compression within tight assemblies
• Sold in a package of 10 for stocking and multi-unit service jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.3-inch outside diameter and 1.5-inch free length. Verify spring rate, load rating, and dimensional fit against the equipment service manual before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or equipment assemblers using standard hand tools. Confirm that the mating bore diameter does not exceed 0.313 inches and that the spring pocket depth accommodates the full free length of 1.5 inches before fitting. Relieve all mechanical tension and de-energize any actuated systems before removing or replacing compression springs. Do not compress the spring beyond the rated solid height of 0.478 inches during installation or operation.
