Gas spring 8/18 500N, stroke 180mm, length 445 ST 180 500N D8

Universal solution for lifting and damping

A 500N gas spring is a reliable element used in many industrial and furniture applications. Its design based on the elasticity of gas allows for smooth and controlled lifting, lowering and damping of movement. It is ideal for anywhere where support is needed when opening flaps, covers or doors.

Construction and application

This gas spring is characterized by a piston rod diameter of 8 mm and a cylinder diameter of 18 mm. A stroke of 180 mm means that the spring can operate in a range of motion with a length of 180 mm, and its total length is 445 mm. It has a mounting eye with a diameter of 8.1 mm, which facilitates integration with the structure. The eye allows for free rotation, which is particularly important in applications requiring dynamic movement.

The application of gas springs of this type is very wide:

• Furniture: Cabinet flaps, bed lifts, adjustable desks.
• Industry: Machines and equipment, automation, production lines.
• Medical equipment: Adjustable hospital beds, dental chairs.
• Automotive: Trunk lids, engine hoods.

Advantages and benefits

• Smooth operation: Provides comfortable and quiet opening and closing of elements.
• Force adjustment: The ability to select the appropriate spring force (500N) for a specific application guarantees optimal performance.
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials resistant to corrosion and mechanical damage - ensures long-term reliability.
• Easy installation: The mounting eye facilitates quick and easy installation in various structures.
• Safety: Controlled lowering eliminates the risk of sudden slamming or falling of elements.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries.
