Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire profile, it delivers a spring rate of 96 pounds per inch and handles a maximum deflection load of 240 pounds over a maximum deflection of 2.5 inches. The blue color coding indicates medium-duty classification, making identification fast during die maintenance. This spring is installed by tool and die makers, press maintenance technicians, and industrial machine mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die spring fits applications requiring a 1 inch hole diameter and a 0.5 inch rod diameter, with a free length of 5 inches. It is suited for metal stamping dies, injection mold tooling, punch and die sets, and similar fixture assemblies in production and job-shop environments. The chromium alloy steel construction holds up under repeated cycling in high-load industrial press applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium-duty blue color classification for quick visual identification during die service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire shape increases load capacity relative to round-wire springs of similar dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e96 pounds per inch spring rate provides consistent, predictable force output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e240 pound maximum deflection load with 2.5 inch maximum deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for durability under repetitive cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO\/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems with TUV Rheinland registration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for tooling and fixture assemblies requiring a 1 inch hole diameter, 0.5 inch rod diameter, and 5 inch free length in medium-duty press and stamping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDie springs should be installed by qualified tool and die technicians or press maintenance personnel. Always de-energize and lock out the press before accessing the die set. Ensure the rod diameter and hole diameter of the spring pocket match the specified 0.5 inch rod and 1 inch hole to prevent buckling or off-axis loading. Do not compress the spring beyond the rated 2.5 inch maximum deflection, as over-compression leads to premature fatigue failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 96 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\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 103-520\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASSOCIATED SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51974136955186,"sku":"103-520","price":29.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/31f665ad855921ef837a01a8875e3556.jpg?v=1789975999","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/associated-spring-raymond-103-520-die-spring-blue","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
