Associated Spring Raymond 106-514 Die Spring Extra Heavy-duty

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 106-514 is an extra heavy-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and other high-load tooling applications. It features a trapezoidal wire shape and is manufactured from chromium alloy steel, which provides superior fatigue resistance and load-bearing capacity under repeated cycling. Key dimensional specs include a 1 inch hole diameter, 1/2 inch rod diameter, and a free length of 3.5 inches. The spring delivers a maximum deflection load of 546 pounds at a maximum deflection of 0.88 inches, with a spring rate of 624 pounds per inch. Installation is typically performed by tool and die makers or press maintenance technicians.

This die spring is suited for use in industrial tooling environments where high compressive loads and consistent spring performance are required. The green color coding identifies it as an extra heavy-duty rating, following standard die spring color classification. It is applicable in metal stamping, forming, and die-set applications found in manufacturing and fabrication facilities. The 3.5 inch free length and 1 inch hole diameter make it compatible with standard die set guide pin configurations that accept this bore and rod sizing.

Key Features

• Extra heavy-duty duty rating for high-load stamping and forming applications
• Trapezoidal wire cross-section provides higher load capacity versus round wire designs
• Chromium alloy steel construction for improved fatigue life and wear resistance
• 546 pound maximum deflection load at 0.88 inches maximum deflection
• Spring rate of 624 pounds per inch for predictable, consistent force output
• Green color coding for quick duty-rating identification in the field

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for industrial tooling applications requiring a 1 inch hole diameter, 1/2 inch rod diameter, and 3.5 inch free length extra heavy-duty spring.

Installation Notes

Die springs should be installed and serviced by qualified tool and die technicians or press maintenance personnel. Always de-energize and lock out the press before removing or replacing die springs. Inspect the mating guide pin and bore for wear or damage before installation. Do not compress the spring beyond its rated maximum deflection, as over-compression will shorten service life and can cause failure.
