Stainless Steel Gas Springs from Industrial Gas Springs. When used in corrosive environments, stainless steel gas springs should be used to prevent corrosion on the gas spring rod and other surfaces. Any corrosion on the rod surface will be drawn through and damage the main seal resulting in premature spring failure. (read more)

To properly use gas springs in even the simplest application, users should understand how they work and how a gas spring can be modified to meet specific operating requirements. Gas springs may also be refered to as gas struts, gas props, gas shocks, gas lifts, or gas dampers depending on the industry and application. (read more)

These are similar to the rigid in tension locking springs with oil on both sides of the piston. However, in the case of a rigid in compression spring the oil is contained in the closed end of the tube and a floating piston retains the gas in the nose bearing end chamber. (read more)

Different gas spring rod and body combinations are used when the K-Factor has to be lower or higher than standard (e.g., a lower or higher difference between the fully extended and fully compressed forces). (read more)

Vulcan's Conpower and Power Springs are formed by winding a strip of material on an arbor and into a case or retaining ring to create a compact power source. Conpower springs are pre-stressed to produce a flatter torque gradient than conventional power springs, and can be used to increase the amount of turns in a given case diameter. (read more)

Compression springs are the most commonly used. When the rod is compressed into the cylinder it extends out when the compressive force is removed or reduced. (read more)

Industrial Gas Springs Inc (IGS)., supplies a full range of high quality compression gas springs, locking gas springs, tension and stainless steel gas springs, dampers, gas struts and gas shocks in collaboration with IGS Ltd., England. (read more)

A flexible locking gas spring has nitrogen gas on both sides of the piston. (read more)
