Rayo Lamp Information

Center draft WICKS are available at $9.50 These wicks fit Rayo's and most center draft oil lamps. The wick is Number #X102

Here is description of all the parts of a Rayo Lamp which may help you to identify any parts you may need: RAYO PARTS

The Rayo lamp consists of the lamp base which is a brass or nickel plated part that contains the foot, with slotted or heart shaped air intake holes at the very bottom, then a stem leading up to the font or fuel holder, the font has a fuel fill cap and a threaded opening for the burner. The burner (#111 on our web site) has a knob which moves the gear driven wick riser. On top of the burner is the gallery, which has a round filigree fence to support the 2&5/8" x 10" chimney. In the center of the burner sits the inner wick tube, which is a part attached to the font. The flame spreader is placed inside the top of the wick tube, which is located in the middle of the top of the burner. The Under-The-Burner (UTB) Tripod is also mounted between the burner and top of the font on Rayo lamps that originally had a shade. The remaining essential part is the cotton wick, which is mounted inside the burner in the wick riser.

Note: The lamp may not be a Rayo unless it has the vertical slotted or heart shaped openings in the foot. Someone may have replaced the fill cap or flame spreader with the Rayo named ones.) (p)
