Available for Immediate Delivery from Stock

The MS24585-1068 is a military specification compression spring from the MIL SPEC Compression (MS24585) Series, designed to meet stringent defense and aerospace standards for critical applications. This precision spring features a 0.18-inch outside diameter (4.57 mm) and a 0.31-inch free length (7.87 mm), providing reliable compression performance in military and aerospace systems where consistent operation under extreme conditions is mandatory. Manufactured from Music Wire with a 0.032-inch wire diameter (0.81 mm), the spring delivers a spring rate of 122.7 lb/inch (21.489 N/mm) through its 4 active coils out of 6 total coils, ensuring predictable force characteristics required by military specifications. With Squared and Ground for optimal load distribution and precise seating, the spring compresses to a solid height of 0.192 inches (4.88 mm) while supporting a maximum load of 14.313 pounds (63.67 N) at full compression. MIL-SPEC springs are essential for defense contractors, aerospace manufacturers, and government applications where compliance with military standards and proven reliability are non-negotiable requirements.
