Gas Springs
Published On: 16th January, 2018
Gas springs consist of a precision rod attached to a high-quality piston moving within a sealed cylinder containing nitrogen at a high pressure. Output forces are the result of the differential between pressure in the cylinder and atmospheric pressure outside the cylinder acting on the cross-section of the rod. As the piston rod is introduced into the cylinder (compression stroke), the internal pressure increases according to the volume of gas displaced by the rod. This increase in the K-Factor is normally 5-50%. When compared with mechanical springs, Gabriel India gas springs are almost constant in force. At Gabriel India, performance testing of each part is conducted on computerised machines, establishing quality and product authenticity.
