Use our calculator!
We have developed a calculator that will calculate the amount of gas that your gas spring requires in order to function properly. In 12 easy steps, you will be able to find an appropriate gas spring for your application.
- Enter the length of the application.
- Fill in the height of the application.
- Measure the angle to the horizontal in degrees. Do this when the cover is closed.
- Continue by doing the same for the angle to the horizontal in degrees.
- Enter with the total amount of weight the cover has.
- Indicate the position of the pivot point; at the top, bottom or in the middle.
- Select the number of gas springs you would like to order. Keep in mind that two gas springs will most of the time be sufficient to open and close the cover.
- Choose the material of the gas spring (steel or stainless steel).
- Enter the width of the application.
- Choose the material of the cover: softwood, plastic, wood, hardwood, perspex, PVC, glass, aluminium or stainless steel.
- The temperature of the surroundings is required as they do influence the working force of gas springs.
- Finally, select whether you would like to have a tension spring or not. Tension springs pull on the cover whereas a gas spring pushes against the cover.
