Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, it delivers consistent load performance across its service life. The spring features a 1-inch hole diameter, a 0.5-inch rod diameter, and a 2-inch free length. It supports a maximum deflection load of 260 pounds at a maximum deflection of 1 inch, with a spring rate of 268 pounds per inch. The blue color coding identifies its medium-duty load classification per industry convention, making identification and replacement straightforward in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis die spring is suited for use in metal stamping tooling, injection mold assemblies, and mechanical press components where repeatable spring force and dimensional accuracy are required. It fits over a 0.5-inch guide rod and seats into a 1-inch pocket, making it compatible with standard die set configurations in both low-volume job shop and high-cycle production environments. Toolmakers, die setters, and mechanical maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire profile for higher load capacity relative to round-wire springs of comparable size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for durability under cyclic compressive loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue color coding indicates medium-duty rating for quick visual identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e268 pounds per inch spring rate for predictable, consistent force output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e260-pound maximum deflection load at 1 inch of travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO\/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for medium-duty die spring applications requiring a 1-inch hole diameter, 0.5-inch rod diameter, and 2-inch free length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified toolmaker or die maintenance technician with the press locked out and all energy sources isolated per OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Ensure the guide rod and spring pocket are clean and free of debris before seating the spring. Do not compress the spring beyond its rated maximum deflection of 1 inch to avoid permanent set or premature failure. Inspect the spring for coil cracking or load loss at regular die maintenance intervals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 260 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 268 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Trapezoidal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chromium Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANAB Accredited; ISO 9001:2008 Certified; ISO\/TS 16949:2009 Certified; TUV Rheinland Registered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161905\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 103-508\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASSOCIATED SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52047536816434,"sku":"103-508","price":20.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/baa71012426d468dafb0eb701855e39a.jpg?v=1790031996","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/associated-spring-raymond-103-508-die-spring-blue","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
