Value Collection 06811517 Compression Spring 0.42in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06811517 is a small-format compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring consistent return force over a short stroke. It measures 0.42 inches in outside diameter and 1 inch in free length, with a wire diameter of 0.028 inches. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 3.54 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 2.67 pounds. These specifications make it appropriate for precision mechanisms, valve assemblies, fastener retention, and general industrial applications where controlled compression force is needed in a compact envelope. Sold in a package of 10 units.

This compression spring is used across a wide range of light mechanical and instrumentation applications. Common install scenarios include valve poppets, switch mechanisms, panel latches, and small actuator assemblies. Its compact outside diameter and short free length suit it for installations where space is limited and a modest, well-defined load response is required. Technicians and assemblers working in HVAC controls, plumbing valve bodies, electrical panel hardware, and general MRO applications will find this spring a practical stock item.

Key Features

• 0.42 inch outside diameter fits into a 0.438 inch hole diameter clearance
• 1 inch free length with a solid height of 0.171 inches for high compression range
• Spring rate of 3.54 pounds per inch provides predictable, linear load response
• Maximum work load of 2.67 pounds suits light-duty return and retention functions
• Wire diameter of 0.028 inches supports consistent coil geometry
• Packaged in quantities of 10 for bench stock and repair kit use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for light mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.42 inch outside diameter and 1 inch free length in standard compression spring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical technicians or assemblers working on the specific device or assembly requiring this spring. Ensure the mating bore or guide post dimensions are verified against the 0.42 inch outside diameter and 0.171 inch solid height before installation. Relieve any system pressure or preload before removing or replacing springs in pressurized or tensioned assemblies. Do not exceed the rated maximum work load of 2.67 pounds to avoid permanent set or fatigue failure.
