Small Gas Struts & Miniature Gas Springs – Compact, Reliable & Customizable Solutions
Small gas struts and shocks are compact motion control devices that use compressed gas, typically nitrogen, to provide smooth, controlled lifting, lowering, and support. Their space-saving design makes them ideal for applications where room is limited, while still delivering precise movement, adjustable force, and long-lasting durability. With a maintenance-free sealed structure, they ensure reliable performance even in demanding environments.
These miniature components are widely used in automotive, aerospace, furniture, medical, and industrial equipment. Mini gas springs and small struts offer enhanced safety, vibration damping, and extended service life. Whether supporting lightweight panels or controlling delicate mechanisms, these components bring efficiency and versatility to modern designs.
Small Gas Strut Specifications
When selecting or replacing a gas spring, it is important to measure the key dimensions accurately. Start with the Rod Diameter and Body Diameter, which determine the strength and load capacity of the gas spring. Next, measure the Stroke, which is the distance the rod can travel between the fully compressed and fully extended positions. Finally, record the Extended Length, which is the total length of the gas spring from the center of one end fitting to the other when fully extended. By following these steps, you can ensure the correct specifications for your application and achieve reliable performance.
