Abstract
A loading/unloading lug is provided on the distal end portion of a load beam for use as a suspension body. The lug extends in the axial direction of the suspension body and is designed to run on a support member when suspension body is moved to a refuge zone. The cross section of the lug perpendicular to the axis of the suspension body is arcuate so that an outer surface in contact with the support member is convex, and the outer surface of the lug forms a smoothed surface smoothed by coining. The arithmetic mean roughness of the smoothed surface ranges from 0.01 &mgr;m to less than 0.2 &mgr;m.
