Value Collection 06812069 Compression Spring 0.48in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812069 is a compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical and industrial applications. It features a 0.48-inch outside diameter, a free length of 2.5 inches, and a wire diameter of 0.047 inches. The spring delivers a spring rate of 6.37 pounds per inch and supports a maximum work load of 10.02 pounds. The solid height measures 0.731 inches, and the recommended hole diameter is 0.5 inches. This part is sold in a package of 5 units. Maintenance technicians, machine builders, and equipment repair professionals commonly use springs of this specification in assemblies requiring controlled compression and return force.

This compression spring fits applications where a compact, light-load return or compression element is needed. Typical use cases include mechanical assemblies, valve components, latching mechanisms, and equipment enclosures across industrial, HVAC, and general trade applications. Its dimensions make it a practical replacement or spare component in a wide range of light mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

Compression springs should be installed by qualified mechanical or trade technicians familiar with spring-loaded assemblies. Always de-energize and release stored mechanical energy in the assembly before replacing or seating a spring. Confirm the housing bore diameter and shaft or guide pin dimensions match the spring OD and ID before installation. Avoid overstressing the spring beyond its rated maximum work load to prevent set or failure.
