Fixed force gas struts are factory-pressurised mechanical devices designed to provide controlled lifting, lowering, or counterbalancing of panels, lids, hatches, or other moving components. Each strut is filled with gas to a predetermined pressure, meaning the output force is constant and precisely calibrated to suit specific applications. This makes fixed force gas struts ideal for scenarios where repeatable, consistent motion is required.
These gas springs are manufactured using robust materials and sealed for maintenance-free operation. They come in a wide range of force ratings, stroke lengths, and sizes, allowing you to choose the perfect match for your equipment or design requirements.
Fixed force gas struts are widely used across various industries, including automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, enclosures, furniture, and medical equipment. They are ideal for:
- Vehicle bonnets, boots, and tailgates – providing smooth, assisted lifting and holding.
- Access panels and machine guards – ensuring ease of operation and improved safety.
- Hinged lids, cabinets, and hatches – allowing soft opening and closing with minimal effort.
- Height-adjustable equipment – maintaining position without drift or drop.
Thanks to their sealed design and consistent output, fixed force gas struts are especially suited to repeat-use, high-volume, or production-line environments where repeatability is crucial.
