SP 9730 Compression Spring, Spring Steel Construction, Nickel-Plated Finish, 0.080 GA x 5/8 In. x 3 In. (2 Pack)

it wasn’t the size that I needed for the project I was working on. But is it well made and I’m sure it’ll come in use sometime

I used these springs in my Yost 750-DI bench vise to fix about the only serious design flaw that vise has. The vise is designed to rotate about its base, and there's an internal locking ring that keeps it from rotating which is tightened and loosened with two bolts. This locking ring binds-up pretty easily, so I put these springs around the locking ring bolts, positioned between the locking ring and vise body. Now, when I loosen the bolts, these springs push the locking ring away from the vise body, preventing the ring from binding. I can't vouch for these springs' longevity, but they're the right size and work well enough for my purpose.

Took a chance on these springs, and they were perfect. I am using three of them on a secondary mirror holder for a telescope. The length and diameter were spot-on. The spring rate was just right for my needs to keep the mirror mount in place no mater which direction the telescope is pointed. I would buy these again for my next project.

Good for the money I spent just pretty sturdy for the spring and size of it

Worked perfect no more issues

They worked perfectly.

Usually happy to find out something ships in higher quantity than expected, but the ended up not fitting. So since I needed two and the super tiny 2-pack icon wasn't on the image for the size I bought I now have 4 springs that don't fit what I need them for. Them not fitting was a gamble, I needed them to fit over something that is 7/8" and they were just a touch too small. Maybe include inner diameter on the listing? Otherwise, they seem sturdy and I am trying the 1-1/8" to see if that will fit and only ordering qty 1 this time!

Good stiff spring. Using it on my cement mixer handle !!
