Gibraltar DCIL32-51 Die Spring Light-duty Green 2 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR DCIL32-51 is a light-duty die spring designed for use in stamping dies, molds, and precision tooling applications. It features a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter, a 5/8 inch rod diameter, and a 2 inch free length. The spring is manufactured from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire profile, which delivers consistent force distribution and extended cycle life. A maximum deflection load of 515 pounds and a spring rate of 403 pounds per inch make this unit suitable for moderate load applications. The green color coding identifies it as a light-duty grade per standard die spring classifications. Installation is typically performed by tool and die makers, mold technicians, or industrial maintenance professionals.

This die spring is suited for use in stamping dies, injection molds, progressive dies, and similar precision tooling found in manufacturing and industrial environments. The compact 2 inch free length and light-duty rating make it a common choice for applications where limited space and moderate spring force are required. It is sold individually and ships in a quantity of one per package.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit die spring for stamping dies, injection molds, and precision tooling assemblies that accept a 1-1/4 inch hole diameter and 5/8 inch rod diameter light-duty die spring with a 2 inch free length.

Installation Notes

Die springs should be installed by qualified tool and die makers or industrial maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out any press or tooling equipment before servicing die components. Inspect the mating rod and bore dimensions to confirm fit before installation. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection of 1.28 inches during operation, as overcompression will reduce service life and may cause spring failure.
