Associated Spring Raymond 106-648 Die Spring Green

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 106-648 is a heavy-duty die spring engineered for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and tooling applications where consistent, repeatable force is required. It features a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter, a 5/8 inch rod diameter, and a free length of 12 inches. The trapezoidal wire shape provides greater load capacity relative to overall spring size compared to round wire. With a spring rate of 270 pounds per inch and a maximum deflection load of 792 pounds at 3 inches of travel, this spring is suited for demanding industrial tooling environments. Manufactured from chromium alloy steel for durability under high-cycle conditions.

This die spring is used in metal stamping dies, injection mold tooling, and press components in both production and maintenance settings. The green color coding indicates a heavy load category per standard die spring classification, helping toolroom technicians quickly identify and replace the correct spring during die maintenance or changeover. It is appropriate for industrial, manufacturing, and toolroom applications where load consistency and dimensional accuracy are critical.

Key Features

• 1-1/4 inch hole diameter and 5/8 inch rod diameter for accurate die set fitment
• 12 inch free length accommodates longer stroke tooling applications
• Trapezoidal wire profile increases load capacity within a compact cross-section
• 270 lb/in spring rate delivers predictable, repeatable force output
• 792 lb maximum deflection load at 3 inches maximum deflection
• Chromium alloy steel construction for extended fatigue life in high-cycle use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for standard die sets using a 1-1/4 inch bore and 5/8 inch guide rod with a heavy load classification.

Installation Notes

Die springs are installed and serviced by toolroom machinists and press maintenance technicians. Always relieve all stored mechanical energy and lock out the press before removing or installing die springs. Inspect the mating bore and guide rod for wear or damage before installation. Never compress a die spring beyond its rated maximum deflection, as overcompression accelerates fatigue and can result in failure.
