Associated Spring Raymond 105-107 Die Spring Gold

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 105-107 is a heavy-duty die spring engineered for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and tooling fixtures where consistent, repeatable force is required. It features a trapezoidal wire cross-section, which delivers higher load capacity and longer fatigue life compared to standard round-wire springs of the same envelope size. With a 0.375-inch hole diameter, a 0.1875-inch rod diameter, and a 1.75-inch free length, this gold-color-coded spring falls into the light-load classification. Maximum deflection load is 44.1 pounds at 0.53 inches of travel, giving a spring rate of 75 pounds per inch. Manufactured from chromium alloy steel, it is suited for demanding industrial tooling environments.

This die spring is used in metal stamping and forming operations, injection mold tooling, and precision fixturing across light manufacturing and metalworking shops. The gold color coding allows quick identification of load class on the shop floor, reducing the chance of mismatched spring selection during tooling setup or maintenance. It is typically installed and serviced by tool-and-die makers, machine maintenance technicians, and manufacturing engineers working on press tooling and automated fixtures.

Key Features

• Trapezoidal wire profile provides higher load capacity and extended cycle life versus round-wire alternatives
• Gold color coding identifies light-load classification for fast field identification
• 44.1-pound maximum deflection load at 0.53 inches maximum deflection
• Spring rate of 75 pounds per inch for predictable, linear force output
• Chromium alloy steel construction for resistance to fatigue and deformation under cyclic loading
• Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard die spring replacement for tooling applications requiring a 0.375-inch hole diameter and 1.75-inch free length in the light-load (gold) classification.

Installation Notes

Die springs are installed and replaced by tool-and-die makers and maintenance technicians during scheduled tooling maintenance or upon visual inspection for set, cracking, or loss of load. Always de-energize and lock out the press before accessing the die set. Ensure the mating rod diameter and pocket bore are within spec before installation to prevent buckling or side loading. Do not compress the spring beyond its rated maximum deflection, as over-compression accelerates fatigue failure.
