Firestone 9000 Ride-Rite Air Spring Bag – Standard, Single Convoluted

Description

Product Overview

The Firestone 9000 Ride‑Rite Air Spring Bag is engineered to deliver consistent, reliable suspension performance for a wide range of agricultural and construction machinery. Constructed from a high‑grade machined exterior, the bag resists wear, abrasion, and environmental exposure, ensuring a long service life even in demanding field conditions. With a standard single‑convoluted design, the bag offers a straightforward installation process that fits most OEM specifications for ride‑height and load capacity.

Key specifications include a compressed height of 6.25 inches, an extended height of 10.25 inches, and a nominal ride height of 8.25 inches. The unit is rated for up to 100 PSI, providing the necessary pressure range to support heavy equipment while maintaining a smooth ride. Weighing only three pounds, the bag is lightweight enough for easy handling yet robust enough to handle the stresses of heavy‑duty operation.

Usage

This air spring bag is ideal for tractors, combines, sprayers, and other farm equipment that require precise ride‑height control and vibration damping. It excels in applications where equipment traverses uneven terrain, such as plowing fields, hauling loads across rough roads, or operating on construction sites. The bag’s ability to maintain consistent pressure helps reduce operator fatigue and protects sensitive components from shock and vibration.

Beyond traditional farm machinery, the Firestone 9000 is also suitable for light construction equipment, including backhoes, skid‑steer loaders, and compact excavators. Its versatile pressure range makes it adaptable to a variety of load conditions, from light utility tasks to heavy‑duty hauling. The bag can be used as a replacement part for original equipment manufacturers (OEM) or as an upgrade to improve ride quality and component longevity.
