Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire shape, this spring delivers a spring rate of 312 pounds per inch and a maximum deflection load of 109 pounds. Its yellow color coding identifies the extra heavy-duty duty rating at a glance, which is standard across NAAMS and ISO 10243 die spring classifications. Licensed tool-and-die technicians and industrial maintenance professionals typically specify this part when high-force, short-stroke spring return is required in a compact envelope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die spring suits applications in stamping and forming dies, injection molds, jigs, and fixtures where reliable return force and consistent cycling are critical. With a 0.5-inch hole diameter and a 9\/32-inch rod diameter, it is sized for standard guided-rod installations. The 1-inch free length and 0.35-inch maximum deflection make it appropriate for tight tooling clearances in both production and repair scenarios. It is sold individually, making it practical for single-position replacement without committing to bulk quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra heavy-duty duty rating with 109-pound maximum deflection load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire cross-section for higher load capacity relative to round-wire springs of comparable size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for fatigue resistance under high-cycle conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eYellow color coding conforms to NAAMS and ISO 10243 duty-rating identification standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 312 pounds per inch provides firm, predictable return force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompliant with NAAMS, ISO 10243, and manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 registered quality systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-specification replacement die spring for guided-rod tooling installations requiring a 0.5-inch hole diameter, a 9\/32-inch rod diameter, and a 1-inch free length in an extra heavy-duty rating per NAAMS and ISO 10243 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDie spring replacement is typically performed by tool-and-die technicians or industrial maintenance personnel with the press or mold fully de-energized and all stored mechanical energy safely released. The spring must be installed on an appropriate guide rod sized for the 9\/32-inch rod diameter to prevent buckling during compression. Inspect the rod and bore for wear or damage before installing a replacement spring. Follow applicable facility lockout\/tagout procedures before servicing any tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2813 inches (9\/32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches (8.89 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel To Solid Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3661 inches (9.30 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 109 pounds (485.05 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 312 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompressed Length At Maximum Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Trapezoidal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chromium Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0189 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAAMS, ISO 10243, ISO 9001:2015 Registered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161905\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: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCIB12.5-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714604171570,"sku":"DCIB12.5-25","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b7b8105257f9ce7b8c671d44eb9819ef.jpg?v=1788503761","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-dcib12-5-25-die-spring-extra-heavy-duty-yellow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
