It features a 1-1\/4 inch hole diameter, a 5\/8 inch rod diameter, and a 6 inch free length, with a maximum deflection load of 501 pounds and a maximum deflection of 2.6 inches. The trapezoidal wire shape provides a higher load capacity per unit of travel compared to round wire designs. Constructed from chromium alloy steel, this spring delivers reliable performance under the cyclic loading conditions common in production tooling environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis die spring is suited for installation in medium-duty die sets used in metal stamping, forming, and stripping operations. The blue color coding follows ISO 10243 international standards for medium-duty die springs, making identification and replacement straightforward during die maintenance. It is appropriate for both OEM die builds and field replacement in existing tooling. Toolmakers, die setters, and maintenance technicians working in manufacturing and fabrication environments are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch hole diameter and 5\/8 inch rod diameter for precise die set fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 inch free length with 2.6 inch maximum deflection and 2.6 inch compressed length at maximum load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e501 pound maximum deflection load with a spring rate of 193 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrapezoidal wire cross-section for higher load density relative to round wire springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChromium alloy steel construction for fatigue resistance under cyclic loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue color coding per ISO 10243 medium-duty classification for easy field identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets NAAMS, ISO 10243, and ISO 9001:2015 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for medium-duty die sets and tooling assemblies that accept a 1-1\/4 inch hole diameter, 5\/8 inch rod diameter die spring per ISO 10243 and NAAMS standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDie springs should be installed by qualified toolmakers or die maintenance technicians familiar with press tooling safety procedures. Always de-energize and lock out the press before accessing the die set. Inspect the mating rod and bore for surface condition and concentricity before installation, as misalignment accelerates fatigue wear. Do not exceed the rated maximum deflection of 2.6 inches, as operating a die spring beyond its travel limit will significantly reduce service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRod Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.6250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6 inches (66.04 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel To Solid Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6142 inches (66.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompressed Length At Maximum Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Deflection Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 501.00 pounds (2229.45 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 193.00 pounds per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDuty Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Medium-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: Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: NAAMS, ISO 10243, ISO 9001:2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161905\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.694 pounds\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: DCIM32-152\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695222718770,"sku":"DCIM32-152","price":24.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3ee04911bfa14d1c04eec157b6a899bb.jpg?v=1788332791","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-dcim32-152-die-spring-6-inch-blue-medium-duty","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
