Gibraltar DCIB32-51 Die Spring Extra Heavy-duty Yellow

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR DCIB32-51 is an extra heavy-duty die spring designed for high-load tooling and stamping applications. Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, this spring delivers a maximum deflection load of 1177 pounds and a spring rate of 2007 pounds per inch. The yellow color coding indicates extra heavy-duty duty rating per industry-standard color classification. At 2 inches free length, it compresses to a solid height of 0.59 inches. Licensed HVAC, tooling, and mechanical maintenance professionals install this type of component in press tooling, die sets, and precision fixture assemblies.

This die spring is sized for a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter and a 5/8 inch rod diameter, making it compatible with standard die set configurations that call for extra heavy-duty yellow springs. Maximum deflection is 0.59 inches (14.99 mm), with a travel to solid load of 0.5787 inches (14.70 mm). It is packaged individually and sold in a minimum order quantity of one unit, suited for replacement or new tooling builds in manufacturing and industrial maintenance environments.

Key Features

• Compliant with NAAMS, ISO 10243, and manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 registered quality systems
• Compact 2 inch free length fits standard die spring pockets without modification

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or new-build die spring for tooling applications requiring a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter, 5/8 inch rod diameter, and 2 inch free length in the extra heavy-duty (yellow) duty class per NAAMS and ISO 10243 specifications.

Installation Notes

Die springs of this type are installed and replaced by tool and die makers or mechanical maintenance technicians. Always relieve all press or fixture load and de-energize the press before removing or installing die springs. Inspect the mating bore and guide rod for wear or damage prior to installation. Follow NAAMS and ISO 10243 guidelines for proper spring pocket depth and rod clearance to ensure correct compression travel and avoid coil binding.
