Gas Spring Guides

Gas springs are a practical and economical solution for controlling the movement of parts in a wide array of devices. These components significantly enhance device functionality and ergonomics, ensuring safety with their controlled motion for both opening and closing actions. Built to endure the lifespan of most equipment, industrial gas springs are self-sufficient units that operate cleanly and require no maintenance.

Designed for robust performance, gas springs are applicable in various sectors including automotive, medical, fitness, and business machinery, as well as in food processing equipment. Their maintenance-free design is particularly advantageous in environments that demand high standards of cleanliness and minimal operational interference, like those found in medical and food industries. Our technical articles provide detailed analysis and applications of gas springs, showcasing how they contribute to equipment efficiency and operator safety. These writings are aimed at helping industry professionals understand the critical role gas springs play in modern mechanical design and how they can be best utilized across different industries to enhance machine operation and safety.

6 Things to Consider When Choosing a Bearing Disc Spring

Bearing disc springs are commonly used in ball bearing assemblies. Also known as conical spring washers, they are characterized by a cone-like shape. Unlike traditional extension and compression springs, bearing disc springs aren’t made of wire coil. Instead, they are … Read More




Constant-Rate vs Variable-Rate Compression Springs

Compression springs are characterized by their ability to shorten or “compress” under a load. They are typically made of spring steel or stainless steel wound in the shape of a coil. When exposed to an external force, the coils will … Read More




Understanding Elastic Fatigue in Coil Springs

Springs are mechanical devices that store, as well as release, energy. The most common type, coil springs, consist of a single piece of coiled metal. When exposed to a load, coil springs will store the energy will simultaneously exerting their … Read More




Understanding the Elastic Limit of Springs

Springs can’t stretch forever. Whether extension or compression, all springs have a point at which they will no longer behave like a spring. Known as the elastic limit, it defines the physical limits of a spring. For a better understanding … Read More
