Common local problems in Del Mar
Cycle-fatigue acceleration in peak heat
Sustained extreme heat can occasionally accelerate metal fatigue in springs already nearing the end of their rated cycle count.
Thermal expansion on torsion bar hardware
Large day-to-night temperature swings cause the torsion bar and mounting hardware to expand and contract, which can gradually affect spring alignment.
UV-related cable sheathing fade
Prolonged direct sun exposure typical of this climate can fade and gradually weaken exposed cable sheathing faster than in milder regions.
Heat-driven spring lubricant breakdown
Intense sun exposure and sustained high temperatures can dry out spring lubricant faster than in milder climates, increasing coil friction and wear.
