Value Collection 06812358 Compression Spring 0.6in Od 2in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812358 is a helical compression spring designed for light-duty mechanical applications requiring controlled resistance and consistent return force. With a 0.6 inch outside diameter, 2 inch free length, and a wire diameter of 0.047 inches, this spring delivers a spring rate of 5.79 pounds per inch and a maximum work load of 8.1 pounds. It is suited for use in assemblies where space constraints demand a compact, reliable spring with a predictable load curve. Mechanical technicians, OEM assemblers, and maintenance professionals install this type of spring across a wide range of equipment and fixture applications.

This compression spring fits into bore holes up to 0.625 inches in diameter and compresses to a solid height of 0.438 inches. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies, tooling fixtures, valves, latches, and general-purpose spring-loaded mechanisms. The combination of wire diameter, free length, and spring rate makes it a practical choice for applications where moderate load and compact packaging are both requirements.

Key Features

• 0.6 inch outside diameter fits standard spring pockets and bore assemblies
• 5.79 lb/in spring rate provides consistent, predictable resistance across the working range
• 8.1 pound maximum work load rated for light-duty mechanical service
• 0.047 inch wire diameter balances flexibility with structural integrity
• 0.438 inch solid height allows tight compression in confined spaces
• Sold in a package quantity of 10 for stocking and small assembly runs

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose compression spring for use in light-duty mechanical assemblies, tooling, valves, and fixtures requiring a 0.6 inch outside diameter and 2 inch free length.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or assemblers as part of a larger mechanical or fixture assembly. Ensure the mating bore or guide rod dimensions are compatible with the 0.625 inch hole diameter and free length before installing. Relieve any stored energy in surrounding assemblies before removing or replacing compression springs. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height of 0.438 inches during installation or operation.
