Frequently asked questions
Is this a durable, high-quality replacement part?
Yes, this Spanner Nut is manufactured from high-grade stainless steel. This material choice ensures exceptional durability and resistance to the harsh, repetitive cycles typical of medical sterilization environments, making it a reliable replacement for your critical equipment.
Will this nut fit my existing equipment perfectly?
This component is precision-engineered to meet strict specifications to ensure proper fitment. It features:
- Inner Diameter (ID): 0.525 inches
- Hexagonal Size (HEX): 0.875 inches
- Thickness (THK): 0.250 inches
These exact dimensions allow it to function as a seamless, direct replacement for OEM Part #026169.
Can this be used with other RPI tools?
Absolutely. While this nut can be deployed independently, it is specifically designed to integrate perfectly as the replacement end attachment for the RPI Double Ended Spanner Wrench (RPI Part #RPT501), ensuring you have a complete, cohesive toolset.
Is this part compatible with my AMSCO/STERIS unit?
This part is designed specifically for AMSCO/STERIS Eagle 10 & 10 Plus autoclaves and sterilizers. It functions as a direct, compatible replacement for OEM Part #026169, helping you maintain the safety and functionality of your specific machine.
What is the spacing between the dowel pins?
The dowel pins on this Spanner Nut are precision-spaced at exactly 0.750 inches apart (center-to-center). The pins themselves measure 0.093 inches in diameter, ensuring accurate engagement with your sterilization equipment’s locking or adjustment mechanisms.
Is this a brand-new component?
Yes, this item is supplied as Factory New. This ensures that you receive a pristine, unused part directly from the manufacturer, providing peace of mind for the maintenance of your critical medical or laboratory equipment.
Does this nut offer resistance to sterilization cycles?
Because it is constructed from durable stainless steel, this nut is inherently designed to withstand the rigorous demands of sterilization environments. It is built to resist corrosion and wear, maintaining its structural integrity over time.
Is this considered a precision-engineered part?
Yes, it is. The ILS014 is manufactured to tight tolerances for both its internal diameter and external hexagonal shape. This level of precision is essential for effective coupling in delicate autoclave and sterilizer systems, ensuring that maintenance tasks are performed accurately.
Can I use this for tasks other than routine maintenance?
While primarily an essential maintenance component for the AMSCO/STERIS Eagle 10 & 10 Plus, its robust stainless steel build and precise geometry make it a versatile fastener for similar industrial applications requiring a spanner-style connection.
How should I handle this part for installation?
Given its specialized design, it is recommended to use an appropriate spanner wrench (such as the RPI Part #RPT501) to install the nut. This ensures you can apply the necessary torque to the 0.875-inch hex surface without damaging the component or the equipment it is securing.
