Right, Im looking for a compression spring with OD of 5mm and range (free length minus compressed length) of around 30mm. Free length preferably less than 50mm.
And it needs to be fairly stiff, cant really quantify it, but I dunno, exert a force of around 10N? May be a little hopeful though...

Sooo, anyone know where I can get one or two (ie not a minimum order of £500)? Or anyone happen to have one kicking around by any chance?

Thanks, Duane.

(Its for my A2 DT project if it matters- an adustable seatpost)

minimum order charge of £10.00

http://www.ashfield-springs.com/compression-springs-list.php

didn't search through the list but there must be something in there?

Or here:

£15 mins spend +Packing, carriage & VAT.

Or you can ring them, explain what you are trying to do and they might send you 'samples'.
