FAQ: all you need to know before you order a gas spring (nearby) Illinois
There are a few things that are good to know before you calculate and order a gas spring. Or maybe you are already curious about certain things that belong to gas springs. A few frequently asked questions are:
- Does it matter if I install one or two gas springs? – Our advice is to install two gas springs for your application. The forces are then evenly distributed across the valve or hatch. This keeps it nicely in balance.
- If I use the calculator tool: how do I determine the ‘’closed angle’’ and ‘’open angle’’? – For this question we have a memory aid. Please remember 12 hours on the clock is 90 degrees, 3 hours on the clock are 0 degrees and 6 hours are -90 degrees.
- If I cannot push the gas spring by hand, does it mean that the gas spring is broken? – The gas spring is probably not broken. The extension force of the gas strut is 500N, it states this on the label, and it means 500 Newton. In kilograms, this is about 500/10 = 50kg. To compress the gas spring requires even more force, because of the friction of the seal that keeps the nitrogen gas in the gas strut. The gas spring should still be able to be pushed in by hand up to about 100N, above that, then it becomes very difficult and you may damage the gas spring.
- Does it matter in which position I mount a gas spring? It can also be done the other way around. – Ja, de gasveer moet (in rust) met de zuigerstang naar beneden gemonteerd worden!
- How can I find a replacement for my ‘old’ Stabilus gas spring? – At Gasspringsshop we sell various universal gas springs. For a number of Stabilus gas springs, we can offer replacement gas springs.
