Mechanical struts prove their worth in the heavy weight category

Associated Spring is enjoying increased success with marketing its mechanical struts and has just launched of a range of mStruts to complete its current offering, which now includes everything from high quality gas struts to fully stainless models.

Particular success has been seen with manhole covers, inspection covers/panels and refrigerated vehicle applications where low maintenance, repeatable loads and temperature are a particular concern. Recently the company has been working closely with automotive, foundry and commercial vehicle businesses on numerous engineering projects. From production line health and safety solutions to bespoke systems, the company's engineering team is constantly pushing the range to be more versatile and fit with the customer's needs, it is claimed. With their proven long life, the mStruts are showing that they are a long term cost saver for their customers when compared with gas struts in similar applications. With over 70,000 stock items and new ranges of 316 Type & Stainless steel springs, Associated Spring says it is confident of meeting all customer's needs, no matter how big or small.
