Die springs are available in a range of different colours and these colours denote levels of duty. For example, the green die springs are light to medium duty depending on the dimensions of the spring, medium duty is blue, heavy duty is red and extra heavy duty is yellow. This makes it easy when customers are replacing die springs in their application to see exactly which spring they need without the need for testing loads, etc. All load deflection figures are given in detail in the Ondrives catalogue so customers can make the correct selection for their application. As a general rule, the best thing to observe in spring selection is to always use as many springs as the die will accommodate which will produce the required load with the least amount of deflection. This will increase the useful life of the spring, reduce the chances of spring failure and the resulting downtime, loss of production and increased maintenance cost.
