Dayton Lamina 9-2048-26 Heavy-duty Die Spring Red

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA 9-2048-26 is a heavy-duty die spring engineered for precision tooling and stamping applications. It features a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter, a 5/8 inch rod diameter, and a 12 inch free length. Constructed from chromium-vanadium steel, this spring delivers consistent, repeatable force across its full range of travel. The D-shaped wire cross-section maximizes load capacity within a compact envelope. It carries a maximum deflection load of 785 pounds and allows up to 3.6 inches of maximum deflection, representing a 30 percent maximum operating deflection. Installation and maintenance teams in tool-and-die, stamping, and metal fabrication environments rely on this spring for high-cycle reliability.

This die spring is suited for use in progressive dies, blanking dies, forming dies, and other metal stamping tooling where consistent spring force and precise travel control are critical. The red color coding identifies it as a heavy-duty load class per ISO 10243 standards, making it straightforward to identify and replace in multi-spring die assemblies. It is appropriate for both OEM tooling builds and maintenance replacement in industrial stamping operations.

Key Features

• Heavy-duty load class with 785 pounds maximum deflection load
• Chromium-vanadium steel construction for high fatigue resistance in repetitive cycling
• D-shaped wire cross-section maximizes load density within hole and rod constraints
• 12 inch free length with 3.6 inches of maximum deflection and 4.2 inches travel to solid
• Red color coding per ISO 10243 heavy-duty classification for quick field identification
• Meets ISO 10243, ISO 9001:2015, and NAAMS standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for heavy-duty die spring applications conforming to ISO 10243 dimensional standards with a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter and 5/8 inch rod diameter.

Installation Notes

Die springs should be installed and removed by qualified toolmakers or maintenance technicians with the press fully de-energized and the ram blocked in a safe position. Inspect the mating hole and rod dimensions before installation to confirm proper clearance and alignment. Do not exceed the published maximum operating deflection percentage, as operating a die spring beyond its rated travel will accelerate fatigue failure. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and tooling OEM guidelines when servicing stamping dies.
