Associated Spring Raymond 203-932 Die Spring 12 in Green

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 203-932 is a light-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, press tooling, and other industrial spring-loaded assemblies. Built from chromium alloy steel and identified by its green color coding per ISO 10243 standards, this spring features a trapezoidal wire cross-section that delivers consistent load performance throughout its compression cycle. It carries a maximum deflection load of 1,123.6 pounds (4,998 N) and a maximum deflection of approximately 3.19 inches (81 mm). Toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance technicians working in metal stamping and fabrication environments are the primary installers of this component.

This die spring is suited for light-duty applications in progressive dies, blanking dies, forming dies, and similar press tooling. It fits into die assemblies with a hole diameter of approximately 2.48 inches (63 mm) and accommodates a rod diameter of approximately 1.50 inches (38 mm). Its 12-inch free length and defined travel-to-solid measurement make it straightforward to spec into new tooling builds or direct replacements in existing die sets where a green-series ISO 10243 spring is called out.

Key Features

• Green color coding indicates light-duty load rating per ISO 10243
• Trapezoidal wire shape provides stable load characteristics and extended cycle life compared to round wire
• Chromium alloy steel construction resists fatigue under repeated compression cycles
• Maximum deflection load of 1,123.6 pounds (4,998 N) at full travel
• Travel to solid of approximately 3.19 inches (81 mm) limits over-compression risk
• Conforms to ISO 10243 dimensional and performance standards

Compatibility

Designed as an ISO 10243 compliant light-duty die spring for use in stamping dies and press tooling that require a green-series spring with a 63 mm hole diameter and 38 mm rod diameter.

Installation Notes

Die springs are installed by toolmakers or die maintenance technicians with the press fully locked out and de-energized per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify that the housing bore and guide rod dimensions match the spring specifications before installation. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection, as compressing a die spring to solid accelerates fatigue and can cause premature failure. Inspect springs regularly for signs of cracking, set, or corrosion during scheduled die maintenance intervals.
