Associated Spring Raymond 105-616 Die Spring Heavy-duty Gold

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 105-616 is a heavy-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and industrial tooling applications. Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, this spring delivers a maximum deflection load of 796.8 pounds over a maximum deflection of 1.2 inches. The 4-inch free length, 1-1/4-inch hole diameter, and 5/8-inch rod diameter make it a straightforward drop-in for standard die sets. The gold color coding indicates heavy-duty duty rating per standard die spring classification conventions. Toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance technicians specify this part for high-load, repetitive-cycle environments where consistent spring force is critical.

This die spring is suited for industrial and manufacturing settings where precision tooling demands reliable, repeatable load performance. Typical applications include metal stamping dies, injection mold tooling, and mechanical press assemblies. The chromium alloy steel construction and trapezoidal wire profile are optimized for high-cycle fatigue resistance under sustained compressive loads. This spring is appropriate for both OEM die builds and replacement service in existing tooling setups.

Key Features

• Heavy-duty duty rating with gold color coding for quick field identification
• Trapezoidal wire cross-section for increased load capacity versus round wire at equivalent size
• Chromium alloy steel construction for high-cycle fatigue resistance
• 796.8 pound maximum deflection load with 1.2 inches maximum deflection
• Spring rate of 664 pounds per inch for predictable force output across the travel range
• Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard heavy-duty die spring for use in industrial stamping dies, punch press tooling, and mold assemblies requiring a 1-1/4-inch hole diameter and 5/8-inch rod diameter with a 4-inch free length.

Installation Notes

Die spring replacement and installation is performed by qualified toolmakers or die maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the press before servicing any die components. Verify that the spring seat and rod clearances match the specified hole diameter and rod diameter before installation. Do not compress this spring beyond its rated maximum deflection of 1.2 inches, as over-compression accelerates fatigue failure.
