Technical data - Gas
springs
Movement of the gas spring is only dampened for the last section
against the full extension of the piston.
Gas springs must be stored and
fitted with the piston pointing downwards and at 45 degrees to the
horizontal. This is important, as this fitting will ensure that
internal glands will remain lubricated by the oil inside the gas
spring.
If a gas spring is fitted horizontally or with the piston upwards,
the oil will run out of the glands, and thus wear and leaking
glands will be the result of incorrect fitting.
