Built from chromium alloy steel with a trapezoidal wire cross-section, it delivers a maximum deflection load of 82 pounds and a spring rate of 91 pounds per inch. The 0.5-inch hole diameter accepts tooling rods up to 9\/32 inch (0.2813 inches) in diameter, and the 1.75-inch free length compresses to a solid height of approximately 0.91 inches at full load. Color-coded blue for quick duty-rating identification in the field, this spring meets NAAMS and ISO 10243 standards for die spring performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spring is suited for press tool, progressive die, and injection mold applications in light manufacturing and industrial maintenance environments. The medium-duty rating makes it appropriate for moderate-load return, stripping, and clamping functions within tooling assemblies. Toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance technicians working on stamping and molding equipment are the primary installers. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard 0.5-inch bore die spring pockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction with trapezoidal wire cross-section for consistent load characteristics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum deflection load of 82 pounds with a spring rate of 91 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch hole diameter and 9\/32-inch rod diameter for standard tooling fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.75-inch free length with 0.91-inch maximum deflection travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue color coding identifies medium-duty rating at a glance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets NAAMS, ISO 10243, and manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 registered quality systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for standard medium-duty die spring positions requiring a 0.5-inch hole diameter, 9\/32-inch rod diameter, and 1.75-inch free length per NAAMS and ISO 10243 dimensional standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDie spring replacement and installation is performed by qualified toolmakers or die maintenance technicians. Always relieve all press pressure and lock out the press before servicing tooling components. Verify that the spring pocket bore and rod diameter match the spring specifications before installation. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection travel to avoid coil binding and premature failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium-Duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 82 pounds (364.90 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.91 inches (23.11 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel To Solid Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9232 inches (23.45 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompressed Length At Maximum Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.91 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 91 pounds per inch\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: Blue\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.024 pounds\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: DCIM12.5-44\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693454917938,"sku":"DCIM12.5-44","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e4d0789dafb869c2388b717b7ce0bb48.jpg?v=1788312603","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-dcim12-5-44-die-spring-blue-medium-duty","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
