Associated Spring Raymond 206-510 Die Spring Extra Strong

Product Description

The ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND 206-510 is a heavy-duty die spring engineered for use in press tooling, stamping dies, and industrial mold applications. Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, this spring delivers an Extra Strong duty rating and a maximum deflection load of 579.11 pounds (2576 N). The yellow color coding identifies the Extra Strong duty classification per ISO 10243. With a free length of 2.5 inches (64 mm) and a travel-to-solid distance of 16 mm, it is sized for consistent, repeatable performance in high-cycle tooling environments. Toolmakers, die setters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers.

This die spring is intended for use in metal stamping dies, injection molds, and punch press tooling where controlled compression force and consistent return action are required. The 25 mm hole diameter and 12.5 mm rod diameter allow straightforward integration into standard die sets. It is suited for both OEM tooling builds and replacement applications in production environments running high-volume press cycles.

Key Features

• Extra Strong duty rating with maximum deflection load of 579.11 pounds (2576 N)
• Trapezoidal wire cross-section provides higher load capacity relative to round wire at equivalent outer dimensions
• Yellow color coding for quick duty-class identification per ISO 10243
• Chromium alloy steel construction for fatigue resistance in high-cycle applications
• 2.5 inch (64 mm) free length with 16 mm maximum deflection travel
• Designed to ISO 10243 standard for dimensional and load interchangeability

Compatibility

Designed as an ISO 10243-compliant die spring for use in standard die sets and mold bases accepting a 25 mm hole diameter and 12.5 mm rod diameter in Extra Strong duty applications.

Installation Notes

Die springs should be installed by qualified toolmakers or die maintenance technicians familiar with press tooling safety procedures. Relieve all stored energy and lock out press equipment before removing or replacing springs in a die set. Confirm hole and rod diameters match the spring specifications before installation to prevent lateral loading and premature fatigue. Do not compress the spring beyond the rated maximum deflection of 16 mm.
