Dayton Lamina 9-3232-11 Die Spring 8in Light-duty Green

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA 9-3232-11 is a light-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, molds, and tooling assemblies where controlled compression force and repeatable deflection are required. Built from chromium-vanadium steel, this spring features a 2-inch hole diameter, a 1-inch rod diameter, and an 8-inch free length. It delivers a maximum deflection load of 761 pounds at 3.2 inches of travel, making it well-suited for applications that demand consistent spring-back force without heavy-duty load requirements. The green color coding identifies it as a light-duty rating per ISO standards, allowing for quick visual identification during tooling setup and maintenance.

This die spring is used in press tooling, injection molds, stamping dies, and fixture assemblies across general manufacturing, metalworking, and automotive fabrication environments. It is installed on guide rods or in die sets where the rod diameter matches the 1-inch specification and the bore accommodates the 2-inch hole diameter. The D-shaped wire cross-section maximizes solid height capacity and load density within the spring pocket. Toolmakers, die setters, and machine builders are the primary installers of this component.

Key Features

• Light-duty chromium-vanadium steel construction for durability and fatigue resistance
• 2-inch hole diameter and 1-inch rod diameter for standard die set fitment
• 8-inch free length with 3.2 inches of maximum operating deflection
• Maximum deflection load of 761 pounds at full travel
• D-shaped wire profile maximizes load capacity within the spring cavity
• Green color coding for quick light-duty identification per ISO 10243

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for tooling assemblies requiring a 2-inch hole diameter, 1-inch rod diameter, and 8-inch free length in a light-duty application. Meets ISO 10243 International Standard and NAAMS (North American Automotive Metric Standard) specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers or die setters during die assembly or scheduled tooling maintenance. Power down and lock out all press equipment before replacing die springs. Ensure the rod diameter and pocket bore match the spring specifications before installation, and inspect the mating surfaces for wear or damage that could affect spring seating. Do not compress the spring beyond the rated maximum deflection of 3.2 inches or 40 percent of free length.
