Associated Spring Raymond 106-710 Die Spring Extra Heavy-duty

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 106-710 is an extra heavy-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and metal-forming tooling applications. Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, it delivers a maximum deflection load of 1,840 lb and a spring rate of 3,285 lb per inch. The green color coding indicates extra heavy-duty duty rating per standard die spring classification. At 2-1/2 inches free length with a 1-1/2 inch hole diameter and 3/4 inch rod diameter, this spring fits standard die sets used by tool-and-die makers, machine maintenance technicians, and press operators.

This die spring is suited for high-load stamping and forming operations in industrial manufacturing environments. It is commonly installed in die sets requiring consistent, repeatable force over extended cycle counts. The trapezoidal wire profile allows for higher load capacity in a compact envelope compared to round-wire springs of equivalent dimensions. Typical installations include progressive dies, compound dies, and stripper plate assemblies on mechanical and hydraulic presses.

Key Features

• Extra heavy-duty rating with 1,840 lb maximum deflection load
• Trapezoidal wire cross-section for increased load density versus round wire
• Chromium alloy steel construction for durability under cyclic loading
• Spring rate of 3,285 lb per inch for predictable, linear force response
• Green color coding identifies extra heavy-duty duty class at a glance
• Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension die spring for use in tooling with a 1-1/2 inch bore and 3/4 inch guide rod. Compatible with die sets and stripper assemblies conforming to standard die spring envelope dimensions for extra heavy-duty green-class springs.

Installation Notes

Die springs are installed by tool-and-die makers or press maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the press before accessing die components. Do not compress the spring beyond its rated maximum deflection of 0.63 inches, as over-compression will permanently damage the spring and reduce service life. Inspect the guide rod and bore for wear or misalignment before installation to prevent side-loading.
