I got a pair of these in a batch of misc. 914 parts. Or rather, we think these springs are for 914. Very blue, 1/2" wire, 14" free length, about 7 coils (allowing for the flattened ends), correct diameter for 914 at 4.25" (110mm?). Seems like they'd be rather stiff. Anyone recognize them? Need to figure out what they are before I offer them for sale.

You can calculate the spring rate pretty easilly. you need the free length, , number of sprung coils, wire diameter, coil diameter, and end style. You can guess on material since all of the steels are pretty close.
