Value Collection 06812853 Compression Spring 0.72in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812853 is a helical compression spring suited for mechanical assemblies, tooling fixtures, and general industrial applications. It has an outside diameter of 0.72 inches and a free length of 3.5 inches, with a wire diameter of 0.072 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 10.49 pounds per inch and supports a maximum working load of 22.32 pounds. Its solid height measures 1.117 inches. Maintenance technicians, machine builders, and trade professionals install this type of spring when restoring or fabricating assemblies that require consistent return force across a defined travel range.

This compression spring fits applications where the mating hole diameter is 0.75 inches or less. Typical uses include valve assemblies, latching mechanisms, industrial equipment, and light-load mechanical linkages in both commercial and light industrial settings. It is appropriate wherever a compact, moderate-rate compression spring is required to maintain position, absorb impact, or return a component to a neutral state.

Key Features

• Outside diameter of 0.72 inches fits standard 0.75 inch bore pockets
• Free length of 3.5 inches provides usable compression travel before reaching solid height of 1.117 inches
• Spring rate of 10.49 pounds per inch allows predictable force calculation across deflection range
• Maximum working load of 22.32 pounds suits light-to-moderate mechanical load applications
• Wire diameter of 0.072 inches offers a balance of flexibility and load-bearing capacity

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or fabrication component for mechanical assemblies requiring a compression spring with a 0.72 inch outside diameter and 3.5 inch free length.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this type are installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers. Before servicing any assembly containing compressed springs, relieve all stored mechanical energy and secure moving components to prevent unexpected release. Use appropriate hand tools and wear eye protection when compressing or seating springs. Verify that the mating bore and shaft dimensions are within tolerance before installation to ensure proper guidance and prevent buckling under load.
