Value Collection 06812374 Compression Spring 0.6in Od 3in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812374 is a compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment requiring consistent return force across a defined stroke. With a 0.6 inch outside diameter and a 3 inch free length, this spring is designed to operate within a housing bore of up to 0.625 inches. The 0.047 inch wire diameter provides a spring rate of 3.8 pounds per inch, with a maximum work load of 8.1 pounds. Maintenance technicians and equipment assemblers working on mechanical sub-assemblies typically install this type of spring during component rebuild or replacement procedures.

This compression spring is appropriate for use in industrial fixtures, panel latches, valve assemblies, and similar mechanisms where a compact, controlled load spring is required. It ships in a pack of five units, making it practical for service kits or bench stock. The solid height of 0.606 inches and a recommended hole diameter of 0.625 inches help define the correct bore and compression clearance for proper installation.

Key Features

• 0.6 inch outside diameter fits standard 0.625 inch bore housings
• 3 inch free length suitable for moderate-stroke compression applications
• Spring rate of 3.8 pounds per inch for predictable, linear load response
• Maximum work load of 8.1 pounds before reaching solid height
• 0.047 inch wire diameter for light-duty mechanical use
• Sold in packs of five for bench stock and service kit use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies where a 0.6 inch OD, 3 inch free length, and 3.8 pound per inch spring rate are specified.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this type are installed by mechanical technicians during assembly or component rebuild procedures. Ensure the mating bore and rod dimensions are verified against the specified hole diameter of 0.625 inches and outside diameter of 0.6 inches before installation. Relieve all mechanical tension and de-energize the assembly before removing or installing springs. Avoid compressing the spring beyond solid height to prevent set and premature failure.
