A Gas Spring uses the force from compressed gas to exert a force, and the ball and socket joint allow for flexible movement. It makes it easier to lift the hood and keeps it safely propped open. One end of the spring is attached to the hood and the other end is mounted on the frame or enclosure body. The ball and socket joint allow for the necessary movement and positioning of the hood. Attributes:• Provided with high strength and wear resistance• Provided with a nominal stroke length of 70mm to withstand the weight of the hood• Withstands the vibrations and forces that are generated during operationApplications:A Gas Spring is used to support the load of the hood while opening and holds it at a completely opened position, preventing the hood from accidentally closing until any external force is applied.
