Hey Ric, this is a really great question but as long as the system uses spring steel that was designed to flex they will not fatique and wear out over time. The Curt replacement spring bar part # C17115 that you referenced is made from spring steel so you would not need to worry about it wearing out. Do you have a system right now that you are looking for replacement spring bars for?
