GAS SPRING 17.2" - 10.2 90LBS

A gas spring, often referred to as a gas strut or lift support, is a mechanical device that uses compressed gas to provide a controlled force. This particular model, the GAS SPRING 17.2" - 10.2 90LBS, has specific characteristics that make it suitable for various applications.

Key Features:

Dimensions: The spring has a compressed length of 10.2 inches and an extended length of 17.2 inches. This means it can exert a force to lift or move objects within this range.
Force: The spring is rated at 90 lbs of force. This indicates the amount of weight or resistance it can overcome when extended.
Material: The spring is typically constructed from stainless steel, making it durable and resistant to corrosion.
Application: Gas springs are commonly used in automotive, industrial, and furniture applications. They can be found in hoods, hatches, doors, and other components that require smooth and controlled movement.
Benefits: Gas springs offer several advantages over traditional mechanical springs, including:
Smooth and controlled movement: The gas-filled chamber provides a consistent force throughout the entire stroke.
Reduced noise and vibration: Gas springs operate more quietly and smoothly than mechanical springs.
Increased safety: The controlled extension prevents sudden or uncontrolled movements.
Compact and lightweight: Gas springs are relatively small and lightweight compared to their mechanical counterparts.
