Associated Spring Raymond 205-622 Die Spring 5.5 in Red

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 205-622 is a heavy-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, punch presses, and industrial tooling applications. Finished in red to indicate its load classification, this spring is manufactured from chromium alloy steel and features a trapezoidal wire cross-section that delivers a higher load capacity and longer fatigue life compared to standard round-wire springs. It has a free length of 5.5 inches (139 mm), a rod diameter of 16 mm, a hole diameter of 32 mm, and a maximum deflection of 42 mm. It is installed and serviced by toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance machinists in manufacturing and fabrication environments.

The 205-622 is suited for medium-to-heavy load tooling applications in stamping, forming, and progressive die assemblies. Its red color coding follows standard die spring load classifications, making it straightforward to identify and replace in the field. The 42 mm travel to solid load makes it appropriate for applications requiring controlled, repeatable compression across high-cycle tooling operations in both production and job-shop settings.

Key Features

• Red color designation indicates load rating for quick field identification
• Trapezoidal wire shape provides higher load density and extended fatigue life versus round-wire alternatives
• Chromium alloy steel construction for durability under high-cycle stamping conditions
• Maximum deflection load of 3612 N with a spring rate of 491.07 N/mm
• Manufactured to ISO 10243 dimensional standards
• ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified manufacturing process

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement die spring for stamping dies, forming dies, and punch press tooling requiring a 32 mm hole diameter, 16 mm rod diameter, and 5.5-inch free length in the red load category per ISO 10243.

Installation Notes

Die springs are installed by qualified toolmakers or die setters. Always de-energize and lock out the press before removing or installing springs. Inspect the mating rod and bore dimensions against the 16 mm rod diameter and 32 mm hole diameter specifications before installation. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection of 42 mm, as over-compression accelerates fatigue and can cause premature failure.
