Gas spring struts
are very versatile and can be used as a direct replacement for metal
springs in many Applications. They can also be used in any situation where
a load needs to be eased or assistance is required; being safe, reliable, long
lasting and cost effective.
We supply many different types of gas spring strut. The most common variety is a standard compression gas spring
strut - used in compressive loading situations e.g. to ease the weight of a
heavy hatchway door. There are also tension gas springs - used in the
opposite situation ie. to pull a door open. It is possible to have a gas
spring that can lock its position, and there are all sorts of options; stainless
steel and jacketed for hostile environments, fail-safe and adjustable force
types.
A standard compression gas spring strut is made up of several components:
- A hardened rod which is attached to the piston
- A piston, which has a rubber-sealing ring around
it, and is guided into the outer tube by a guide piece.
This also serves as an end piece.
- Another end piece at the other end of the tube.
- Inside the tube there is a quantity of inert
nitrogen gas, under high pressure and some mineral oil.
- At the other end of the gas spring unit is a
threaded stud. These are used to attach end fittings, which help to
mount the gas spring strut in its application.
