With a body diameter of 0.472 inches and a maximum stroke of 0.59 inches, this spring delivers an initial force of 56 lbf and a full-stroke force of 81 lbf, charged at 1,560 psi. The blue color coding aids quick identification on tooling setups. At an overall length of 2.83 inches and a body length of 2.17 inches, it fits space-constrained tooling environments. Licensed tool and die makers and machine builders are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nitrogen gas spring is suited for stamping dies, progressive dies, injection molds, and precision fixtures in both light industrial and production environments. The M6 mounting hole thread size allows straightforward integration into standard tooling plates. Its 0.236-inch rod diameter and 12 mm body diameter conform to common compact-series gas spring standards, making it a practical replacement or addition in tooling assemblies where consistent blank-holding or stripping force is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull-stroke force of 81 lbf with an initial force of 56 lbf for predictable, progressive load delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1,560 psi factory nitrogen charge  -  ready to install without field charging equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.59 inch maximum stroke in a 2.83 inch overall length for compact tooling integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM6 mounting thread for direct installation into standard tooling plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlue color coding for quick identification and force-range sorting on multi-spring tooling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of 0 degrees F to 176 degrees F covers typical production shop conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a compact nitrogen gas spring replacement or addition for stamping dies, injection molds, and precision fixtures requiring a 12 mm body diameter, 15 mm stroke, and M6 mounting thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed tool and die makers or mechanical engineers during die build or maintenance. Depressurize or confirm the spring is at rest before disassembly from any live tooling assembly. Use appropriate thread engagement depth for the M6 mounting hole and avoid side-loading the rod beyond the rated stroke. Never attempt to recharge or disassemble the nitrogen chamber in the field  -  these units are factory sealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.472 inches (12 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 inches (6 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Stroke\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.59 inches (15 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.17 inches (55 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.83 inches (72 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Spring Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56 lbf\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Stroke Spring Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 81 lbf\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial Charge Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,560 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Hole Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 176 degrees F (80 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Operating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees F (0 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASSOCIATED SPRING RAYMOND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: R12-015  BL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASSOCIATED SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52079998566706,"sku":"R12-015  BL","price":123.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bc42548fd679c19293e4485baa6345fa_95479dd1-9f13-4572-84af-8227c9829aa2.jpg?v=1790055241","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/associated-spring-raymond-r12-015-bl-nitrogen-gas-spring","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
