Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, this spring delivers a spring rate of 80 pounds per inch and handles a maximum deflection load of 240 pounds over 3 inches of travel. The blue color coding indicates medium-duty load classification per ISO die spring standards. It is installed and serviced by tooling technicians, die setters, and maintenance machinists working in metal fabrication and press environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die spring is suited for use in progressive dies, compound dies, and stripper plate assemblies where controlled force and repeatable deflection are required. With a 1-inch hole diameter and 0.5-inch rod diameter, it fits standard die spring pockets and guide rods common in medium-duty press tooling. The 6-inch free length provides adequate working travel for typical stripper and pressure pad applications in both light manufacturing and production stamping environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for high fatigue resistance in cyclic loading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire profile increases load capacity relative to round wire at equivalent outside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlue color code identifies medium-duty load rating for quick visual identification during die setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e80 pounds per inch spring rate provides predictable, linear force output through the deflection range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum deflection load of 240 pounds at 3 inches of travel suits standard stripper and pad assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO\/TS 16949:2009 certified quality management systems\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 medium-duty stamping die assemblies using standard 1-inch bore pockets and 0.5-inch guide rods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDie springs are installed by qualified toolmakers or die setters with the press fully de-energized and all stored energy released from the tooling. Inspect the spring pocket and guide rod for wear or scoring before installation, as surface damage accelerates spring fatigue. Never compress a die spring beyond its rated maximum deflection, as over-compression causes permanent set and premature failure. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and equipment lockout\/tagout protocols before accessing any press tooling.\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: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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: 80 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 Code\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: 0.45 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\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: 103-524\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASSOCIATED SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972204560690,"sku":"103-524","price":34.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9ae6906a91b2c2b0cae429d1e3196f08.jpg?v=1789964417","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/associated-spring-raymond-103-524-die-spring-blue-medium-duty","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
