How does a Gas Spring work and how should you mount gas springs? For which applications are there gas springs and what do you use a gas spring for? We try to inform you about these questions as well as possible. If you have any questions, we can of course be reached by telephone and/or e-mail.
A gas spring consists of a cylinder with a piston rod, whereby gas is compressed in the cylinder and thus provides a resilient effect. A valve in the piston ensures that the movement is damped. There are basically two types of gas springs:
Gas Spring: The Gas Spring ( also knows as ) Strut is most commonly used. It is normally extended and requires a force to push the gas spring.
Gas pull spring: With a gas pull spring, force is needed to extend it.
Some gas springs are lockable. The piston rod is then hollow, and a valve in the piston can be opened with a rod through the hollow piston rod. An example of a lockable gas spring is with an office chair. An unblockable gas spring is for example at the tailgate of cars.
You can actually easily replace a gas spring and mount a new spring yourself. There are, however, a number of things that you should definitely take into account. Below we would like to give you a number of tips for mounting gas springs.
A gas spring can be used for many different things and customization is often desired. We are happy to assist you in order to provide you with the best possible service and to ensure that you can order the right gas spring.
