The deflection shall be limited to a maximum of .03 inch per foot of the door width. The springs are to consist of helical torsion types designed to meet a 25 percent load factor. The safety factor allows for safe operation, ease of use, and longer spring life. The springs are to be grease packed and anchored, using a cast iron anchor, to a cold rolled steel inner shaft. The spring tension shall be fully adjustable from outside of the end bracket plate. To ensure smooth operation end, the bracket plates shall contain sealed ball bearings to minimize wear of pipe shaft.
