Dayton Lamina 10-16 Spring Cage 2in Oal 1.25in Od Steel

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA 10-16 is a steel spring cage designed to guide and retain compression die springs in stamping and press tooling applications. It provides a rigid housing that keeps the spring aligned under load, reducing lateral deflection and extending spring service life. At 2 inches overall length and 1.25 inches outer diameter, this cage suits compact tooling setups where precise spring containment is critical. Installation is performed by tool and die makers or maintenance technicians working on stamping dies and fixtures.

This spring cage is suited for use in metal stamping dies, punch press tooling, and similar industrial fixture applications where compression spring guidance is required. The steel construction handles the cyclic compressive loads common in production stamping environments. Its compact 2-inch overall length fits standard die set pocket configurations found in light to medium tonnage press applications.

Key Features

• Steel construction provides durability under cyclic compressive load
• 2 inches overall length fits compact tooling envelopes
• 1.25 inches outer diameter for precise spring retention and alignment
• Reduces lateral spring deflection during press stroke
• OEM-style fitment for standard die set spring pocket configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement spring cage for compression die spring applications in standard stamping die and press tooling setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by tool and die technicians during die maintenance or build. Always ensure the press ram is fully retracted and all stored energy in the die is relieved before servicing spring components. Verify that the cage outer diameter and overall length are compatible with the die pocket dimensions before assembly. Consult applicable tooling design standards and shop safety procedures when working on live tooling.
