Associated Spring Raymond 104-824 Die Spring 2in Red

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 104-824 is a heavy-duty die spring engineered for use in stamping dies, presses, and industrial tooling applications. Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, this spring delivers a maximum deflection load of 1047.8 pounds over a maximum deflection of 2.22 inches, with a spring rate of 450 pounds per inch. The red color coding indicates a heavy load class, making identification straightforward during maintenance and die setup. Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified processes, it is suited for high-cycle industrial environments where consistent force and dimensional accuracy are required.

This die spring is intended for use in metal stamping dies, injection mold tooling, punch press assemblies, and similar industrial machinery where a 2-inch hole diameter and 1-inch rod diameter configuration is needed. It is installed by tool and die makers, press maintenance technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals. The 6-inch free length suits standard die sets requiring controlled, repeatable spring return force in high-load production cycles.

Key Features

• Red color class indicates heavy load rating with a 1047.8-pound maximum deflection load
• Trapezoidal wire cross-section provides higher load capacity compared to round wire at equivalent dimensions
• Chromium alloy steel construction for durability in high-cycle press and die applications
• Spring rate of 450 pounds per inch for predictable, consistent deflection behavior
• Maximum deflection of 2.22 inches from a 6-inch free length
• Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008, ISO/TS 16949:2009, and TUV Rheinland registered quality standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for industrial stamping dies, punch presses, and mold tooling requiring a 2-inch hole diameter, 1-inch rod diameter, and 6-inch free length with a heavy-load red classification.

Installation Notes

Die springs of this type are installed by qualified tool and die technicians or industrial maintenance personnel. Always de-energize and lock out the press or machine before servicing any die components. The spring must be seated squarely on the rod and within the pocket bore to prevent side-loading, which can reduce service life. Do not compress beyond the rated maximum deflection of 2.22 inches during operation or setup.
