Value Collection 06812077 Compression Spring 0.48 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812077 is a helical compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies across industrial, HVAC, plumbing, and general equipment applications. It measures 0.48 inches in outside diameter with a 3-inch free length and is wound from 0.047-inch wire. The spring delivers a rated spring rate of 5.27 pounds per inch and handles a maximum work load of 10.02 pounds. This part ships in a package quantity of 5 and is typically installed or specified by maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and equipment service professionals who need a reliable off-the-shelf compression spring for replacement or new assembly work.

This compression spring fits applications requiring a compact, small-diameter spring in confined mechanical spaces. Typical uses include valve mechanisms, switch actuators, latch assemblies, and light-load return functions in residential and commercial equipment. The 0.5-inch hole diameter clearance and 0.863-inch solid height make it appropriate for guided-pin installations where travel and load requirements fall within its rated range. No specific OEM system compatibility was stated in the product data.

Key Features

• 0.48-inch outside diameter fits tight-clearance assemblies and guided installations up to 0.5-inch bore
• 3-inch free length provides moderate travel range for return and tensioning applications
• 5.27 pounds per inch spring rate delivers predictable, linear load response
• 10.02-pound maximum work load rating supports light-duty mechanical functions
• 0.863-inch solid height allows for compact compressed-stack packaging in short housings
• Sold in a package of 5, minimizing per-unit cost for service stock or small-batch assembly

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or new-installation compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies where the outside diameter, free length, spring rate, and maximum load fall within the rated specifications of this part.

Installation Notes

De-energize, depressurize, or otherwise lock out the equipment before removing or installing compression springs in live assemblies. Verify that the bore diameter accommodates the 0.48-inch OD with sufficient clearance and that the guide pin, if used, is sized below the inside diameter of the spring. Confirm that the intended working load does not exceed the 10.02-pound maximum to avoid set or premature fatigue. Standard hand tools are sufficient for most installations; no special equipment is required.
