Value Collection 21682 Compression Spring 0.625in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 21682 is a compression spring manufactured from spring steel for reliable elastic force in a wide range of mechanical and industrial applications. With an outside diameter of 0.625 inches (19/32 inches) and a free length of 2.1875 inches (2-3/16 inches), this spring is designed to resist compressive loads and return to its original length when force is released. The wire diameter measures 0.040 inches and the spring rate is 3.1 pounds per inch, making it suitable for applications requiring consistent, repeatable force output. This part is sold in packages of 12 and is suited for maintenance, repair, and OEM assembly operations.

This compression spring is used in light-to-medium duty mechanical assemblies across a broad range of industries including HVAC equipment, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, and general industrial machinery. Its compact dimensions make it a practical choice for valve assemblies, actuators, latching mechanisms, and similar components where controlled return force is needed. Technicians and assemblers sourcing replacement or production springs will find this a standard catalog offering suited to bench stock and MRO inventory.

Installation Notes

Compression springs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with the host assembly. De-energize and depressurize any system before disassembling components that contain spring-loaded parts. Ensure the spring pocket or housing matches the outside diameter to prevent lateral buckling under load. Do not compress the spring beyond its solid height during installation or operation.
