New Heavy Duty Gas Struts

What are Heavy Duty Gas Struts?

Heavy-duty gas struts, also known as gas springs, are robust mechanical components designed to support and control the movement of heavy loads through a sealed cylinder filled with compressed gas and a piston. Find out how gas struts work on this page.

When an external force is applied to the piston, the gas compresses, generating controlled resistance that moderates motion while providing smooth and reliable operation. 

Where are Heavy-Duty Gas Struts used?

These high-strength gas struts are commonly used in industrial machinery, automotive applications, heavy-duty equipment, and architectural structures, ensuring safe and efficient lifting, lowering, and positioning of large or weighty components.

Material Benefits

Steel is a highly versatile and durable material that offers numerous benefits in various industries. One of the key advantages of steel is its exceptional strength, 
making it suitable for applications that require structural integrity, such as construction and engineering projects. 
Moreover, steel is renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance, enabling it to withstand harsh environments and maintain its integrity over time. 
Additionally, steel is a sustainable choice as it is 100% recyclable, reducing the need for new production and minimising environmental impact. 
The versatility of steel is evident in its ability to be fabricated into different shapes and sizes, enabling its use in a wide range of applications.

How are Heavy-Duty Gas Struts Applied?

Within the automotive sector, they provide essential support for lifting and securing hoods, tailgates, and bonnets. 
These versatile struts feature adaptable and ergonomic elements, making them suitable for chairs, beds, and cabinets. 
In household contexts, gas struts are employed to enhance windows, under-bed storage, homemade bars, and shelving units, delivering user-friendly opening and closing mechanisms.
