Value Collection KP150143 Compression Spring Music Wire

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP150143 is a compression spring manufactured from music wire, designed to provide consistent linear force in mechanical assemblies, tooling fixtures, and light industrial applications. The spring measures 0.3125 inches in outside diameter with a free length of 1.375 inches and a wire diameter of 0.0310 inches. A spring rate of 5.98 pounds per inch delivers predictable, repeatable load response across the compression cycle. Music wire construction offers high tensile strength and good fatigue resistance, making this spring a reliable choice for moderate-duty cycling applications. Mechanical technicians, machinists, and maintenance professionals typically source this style of spring for repair and fabrication work.

This compression spring is suited for use in small mechanical devices, equipment housings, latching mechanisms, and precision fixtures where a compact coil spring with controlled load characteristics is required. The 0.3125 inch outside diameter and 1.375 inch free length fit standard small-bore pockets and guide pins common in light manufacturing and maintenance environments. Sold in packages of 10 units, this spring is practical for bench stock or low-volume replacement use across a variety of trade and industrial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance professionals during equipment repair or fabrication. Before replacing a compression spring in any assembly, relieve all stored mechanical energy and de-energize associated equipment per standard lockout/tagout procedures. Verify that the spring pocket depth, bore diameter, and load requirements match the spring specifications before installation. Do not stretch or pre-load the spring beyond its rated compression range.
