Gas springs

Lesjofors has revised and updated its brochure on the gas springs that it supplies to the industrial, automotive, leisure, furniture, and medical sectors.

The springs are said to be easy to install and "they perform a number of critical purposes such as balancing, unloading, lifting, and lowering". Information is provided on design, manufacture, and performance, and technical details are provided to enable the calculation to be made of the spring force and damping requirements for any particular scenario. In addition, the publication contains details of a range of end-fittings to ensure the correct fitment of the gas spring for every application. The range is made up of conventional and lockable varieties, many of which are manufactured with a stainless steel tube. The company has announced that this year is has "substantially upgraded" its stock levels which means that most products can be delivered with 24 hours of an order being placed.
