Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the RA 1014993 compression spring used for?
A: The RA 1014993 is an OEM compression spring engineered for Raymond electric lift truck assemblies. It provides load cycling support and resilience in suspension, hydraulic, or mechanical return systems depending on installation location.
Q: What are the physical dimensions of the RA 1014993 spring?
A: The RA 1014993 has an inside diameter of 0.14 inches and an outside diameter of 0.18 inches. It features ground, closed ends for secure mounting. Verify these dimensions match your original spring before ordering.
Q: What is the spring rate for the RA 1014993?
A: The RA 1014993 has a spring rate of 2.6 pounds per inch (lbs/in). This specification determines how much force is required to compress the spring by one inch and must match your equipment assembly requirements.
Q: What material is the RA 1014993 made from?
A: The RA 1014993 is constructed from spring steel conforming to ASTM A228 and meets AMS 5112 technical standards. This material composition provides the fatigue resistance and load cycling durability required for lift truck applications.
Q: How long does the RA 1014993 spring last in service?
A: Compression springs manufactured to ASTM A228 specifications typically endure hundreds of thousands of load cycles. Service life depends on operating load, cycle frequency, and environmental conditions. Springs in cold storage or wet environments may degrade faster. Replace if you observe loss of resilience or permanent deformation.
Q: Can I use the RA 1014993 spring on non-Raymond equipment?
A: The RA 1014993 is designed as an OEM replacement for Raymond electric lift trucks. Cross-compatibility depends on matching the inside diameter, outside diameter, spring rate, and mounting configuration. Verify your equipment specifications before substituting springs.
