Value Collection 06812986 Compression Spring 0.85in Od 5 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 06812986 is a helical compression spring suited for light-duty mechanical and industrial applications. It has an outside diameter of 0.85 inches, a free length of 3 inches, and a wire diameter of 0.054 inches. The spring delivers a rate of 3.77 pounds per inch and handles a maximum working load of 8.53 pounds. Solid height measures 0.455 inches, and the recommended hole diameter for housing is 0.875 inches. This part ships in a pack of five units, making it practical for bench stock and small-volume service needs. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers are the typical installers.

This compression spring fits general mechanical assemblies where a small-diameter, light-load spring is required. Typical applications include valve assemblies, latching mechanisms, return mechanisms, and equipment housings across industrial, HVAC component, and light manufacturing environments. The 3-inch free length and 0.85-inch OD suit installations where compact axial travel and moderate spring force are needed. Each pack contains five springs, allowing for direct replacement or small-batch installation without separate ordering.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement compression spring for light-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.85-inch outside diameter and 3-inch free length with a 3.77 pound-per-inch spring rate.

Installation Notes

Compression springs of this size are typically installed by mechanical technicians or maintenance personnel using standard hand tools. De-energize and depressurize any assembly before removing or replacing internal springs. Verify that the housing bore diameter accommodates the 0.875-inch recommended hole diameter and that the travel range does not compress the spring past its solid height of 0.455 inches during normal operation. Do not modify the spring by cutting or grinding coils.
