Compression Spring 10–20mm OD & 60–100mm Length — Reliable Elastic Force for Every Build
When your mechanical project demands consistent return force and precise dimensional control, finding the right compression spring can be frustrating. Engineers, hobbyists, and repair technicians who work with small-scale assemblies need springs that hold their rated load cycle after cycle without permanent set. This listing is designed for makers and professionals who require a compact, multi-size compression spring solution they can trust.
Each pack contains 5 compression springs wound from 1.2 mm wire diameter steel. Outer diameters span 10 mm to 20 mm (approx. 0.39 in to 0.79 in) and free lengths range from 60 mm to 100 mm (approx. 2.36 in to 3.94 in). Select your exact outer diameter and free length combination from the variant options above to match your application.
These compression springs are well-suited for DIY mechanical linkages, 3D-printer bed leveling assemblies, RC vehicle suspension tuning, electronic enclosure latches, and light-duty industrial jigs where a reliable restoring force is needed in a compact envelope.
🔧 Compatibility: Suitable for spring seats, guide rods, and bores sized to match the selected outer diameter. Verify inner bore clearance and seat depth against your chosen variant before ordering.
✅ Key Features of These Compression Springs
🌀 1.2 mm Wire Diameter
Consistent wire gauge across all size variants ensures predictable spring rate and uniform coil spacing for smooth compression and extension.
📐 Wide Size Range
Outer diameters from 10 mm to 20 mm and free lengths from 60 mm to 100 mm give you the flexibility to match multiple project requirements from a single product family.
⚙️ Stable Spring Rate
Cold-wound coil construction maintains dimensional accuracy under repeated load cycles, reducing the risk of coil binding or premature fatigue in dynamic applications.
🛡️ Corrosion-Resistant Finish
Surface treatment helps resist oxidation in typical indoor and light-outdoor environments, keeping springs functional over extended service periods.
📦 5-Pack Convenience
Each order ships as a 5-piece set, giving you spares for prototyping, testing, or replacing worn components without waiting for a reorder.
🔩 Versatile Application Fit
Closed and ground ends (typical for this spring class) provide flat seating surfaces compatible with standard spring pockets, guide pins, and plunger assemblies.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right outer diameter for my application?
Measure the inner diameter of the bore or housing where the spring will sit. The spring's outer diameter should be slightly smaller than the bore to allow free movement without binding. For guide-rod applications, the spring's inner diameter (outer diameter minus twice the wire diameter) should be slightly larger than the rod.
What is the inner diameter of these springs?
The inner diameter equals the outer diameter minus twice the wire diameter (1.2 mm × 2 = 2.4 mm). For example, a 10 mm OD spring has an approximate inner diameter of 7.6 mm. Use this to check guide-rod clearance for your chosen variant.
Are these springs strong enough for my project?
These are light-to-medium duty compression springs suited for applications such as electronic enclosure latches, 3D-printer bed leveling, RC suspension, and small mechanical linkages. For heavy industrial loads or safety-critical applications, please contact us to confirm the spring rate and load capacity of your selected variant before ordering.
Will these springs rust or corrode?
The springs feature a corrosion-resistant surface treatment suitable for typical indoor environments and light-outdoor use. For applications involving prolonged moisture exposure, chemical contact, or marine environments, consider additional protective measures or contact us to discuss material options.
Can I use these springs in a 3D printer or robotics project?
Yes. The 10–20 mm outer diameter range and 60–100 mm free length range make these springs a popular choice for 3D-printer bed leveling assemblies, robotic gripper return mechanisms, and small actuator reset functions. Select the variant whose dimensions best match your design's spring pocket and required travel.
How do I select the correct free length?
The free length is the spring's uncompressed length. Choose a free length that, when compressed to your working length, stays within the spring's elastic range (typically no more than 70–80% compression of free length). If you need help calculating working load vs. deflection, contact us with your application details.
Do you offer bulk pricing for larger quantities?
Each listing provides a 5-piece pack. If you require larger quantities for production or wholesale purposes, please contact us directly through the store's contact page and we will be happy to discuss volume options.
