It features a trapezoidal wire shape wound from chromium alloy steel, which provides high load capacity in a compact free length of 1.5 inches. With a maximum deflection load of 434 pounds and a spring rate of 1,137 pounds per inch, this spring delivers consistent, repeatable force under high-cycle industrial conditions. The yellow color coding identifies it as an extra heavy-duty rating per ISO and NAAMS standards. Licensed toolmakers and die maintenance technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis die spring is suited for industrial press and stamping tooling where high compressive loads are required in tight clearances. The 0.75-inch hole diameter and 0.375-inch rod diameter allow it to fit standard guided spring pockets commonly found in progressive, compound, and transfer die sets. It is appropriate for both OEM die builds and maintenance replacement in production tooling environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra heavy-duty duty rating with a maximum deflection load of 434 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire cross-section for higher load capacity compared to round-wire springs of equivalent size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for fatigue resistance under high-cycle press conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYellow color coding per NAAMS and ISO 10243 extra heavy-duty classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring rate of 1,137 pounds per inch for predictable, linear force delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum deflection of 0.38 inches with a compressed length at maximum load of 0.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for standard guided spring pockets in industrial stamping and press tooling conforming to NAAMS and ISO 10243 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDie springs of this type are installed and replaced by toolmakers or die maintenance technicians during scheduled die maintenance or at end-of-service-life intervals. Always de-energize and lock out the press before accessing the die set. Inspect the spring pocket bore and guide rod for wear or damage before installing a replacement spring. Never pre-compress beyond the rated maximum deflection, as exceeding travel limits accelerates fatigue failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.38 inches (9.65 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompressed Length at Maximum Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.38 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel to Solid Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3858 inches (9.80 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 434 pounds (1,931.30 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1,137 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy-Duty\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0704 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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: DCIB20-38\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709552099634,"sku":"DCIB20-38","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a6ec6c265ec3614a5b62a677bb3c97c3.jpg?v=1788457873","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-dcib20-38-die-spring-extra-heavy-duty-yellow","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
