What is a food-grade (FDA) gas spring? Our food-grade gas springs are made of a strong stainless steel (AISI 316) that can withstand cleaning agents. The oil is FDA approved. (FDA mobil DTE FM 220 FOOD)
The gas spring works just like a normal gas spring. It provides resistance when the piston rod is pressed into the cylinder and will always try to return to its unloaded length (L2).
Our gas springs require no maintenance. In fact, the piston rod must not be oiled, as this may damage the gasket between the piston rod and the cylinder. If the spring is used in a dirty environment, you can advantageously mount our rubber bellows to protect the piston rod.
It is important to fit the gas spring so that the piston rod (the thin part of the gas spring) points downwards in the position of furthest travel. If it is installed conversely, there is a risk that the oil will run out of the gasket and the service life will thereby be considerably shortened.
We now also stock a selection of end fittings and fittings in acid-proof AISI 316 stainless steel. For more information, see under end fittings or use the buttons below.
