Associated Spring Raymond 206-505 Die Spring Yellow Extra Strong

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 206-505 is a yellow-coded, extra-strong die spring designed for high-load tooling and stamping applications. It features a 25.00 mm hole diameter and a 12.50 mm rod diameter, with a free length of 32.00 mm (1-1/4 inches). The trapezoidal wire shape maximizes load capacity within a compact envelope. With a maximum deflection load of 2995.20 N and a spring rate of 2137.31 N/mm, this spring delivers consistent, repeatable force suited to precision die and press tooling environments. It is manufactured from chromium alloy steel for durability under cyclic compression loads.

This die spring is intended for use in metal stamping dies, punch presses, injection molds, and similar industrial tooling setups where controlled compression force is required. The extra-strong duty rating and yellow color coding follow ISO 10243 standards, making it straightforward to identify and specify during die maintenance or rebuild. Toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance technicians working in manufacturing and fabrication environments are the primary installers of this component.

Key Features

• Extra-strong duty rating with a maximum deflection load of 2995.20 N
• Spring rate of 2137.31 N/mm for predictable, consistent force output
• Trapezoidal wire shape increases load capacity versus round wire at equivalent size
• Chromium alloy steel construction for fatigue resistance under cyclic loading
• ISO 10243 compliant; yellow color coding for easy duty-class identification
• Manufactured under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems with TUV Rheinland registration

Compatibility

Designed as an ISO 10243 standard die spring for use in industrial stamping dies, punch press tooling, and mold assemblies requiring a 25.00 mm hole diameter and 12.50 mm rod diameter with a 32.00 mm free length.

Installation Notes

Die springs should be installed by qualified toolmakers or die maintenance technicians familiar with press tooling procedures. Always de-energize and lock out the press before removing or replacing die components. Verify that the rod diameter and pocket bore dimensions match the spring specifications before installation. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection of 8.00 mm, as operating beyond this limit will accelerate fatigue failure and reduce service life.
