Gas springs are maintenance-free, install easily

Gas springs that offer controlled stop positioning with dynamic-end damping provide effortless opening and closing of doors and lids and are maintenance-free.

Stabilus, the world market leader in the design and manufacture of gas springs and hydraulic motion control dampers, introduces its Master-Lift DED gas springs, offering controlled stop positioning with dynamic-end damping. Master-Lift DED gas springs provide effortless opening and closing of doors and lids for Recreational Vehicles. Offering a compact, attractive design, the Master-Lift DED gas springs are maintenance-free and easy to install.

The standard line of Master-Lift DED offers numerous geometric configurations and force variants.

To accommodate different door types including vertical, offset and horizontal, Stabilus provides various connection systems for practical and swift installation.

Dynamic end damping allows for precise control of the speed at which the object extends or compresses.

This control is achieved by using a longitudinal groove inside the pressure tube.

By varying the groove placement, the opening or closing speed of motion can be accurately set for any application.

Gas springs are a proven method of counterbalancing covers and objects.

They offer ideal capabilities for safely lifting, lowering, and positioning heavy or cumbersome objects.

More versatile than mechanical springs, gas springs offer the advantages of speed-controlled dampening, cushioned end motion, simple mounting, compact size, flat force curve, and a wide range of available forces.
