Stabilus Bloc O Lift Locking Gas Spring Guide

Stabilus Bloc O Lift is a locking gas spring designed to provide controlled movement and secure positioning in adjustable systems. It allows smooth adjustment while maintaining stability under load. For applications where availability, lead time, or cost are factors, compatible locking gas spring solutions are also widely used in the market.

Bloc O Lift refers to a category of locking gas springs designed to combine motion assistance with position control. Unlike conventional gas springs that only provide lifting force, this system integrates an internal locking mechanism.

The locking function is achieved through a valve-controlled system. When the release mechanism is activated, internal pressure is redistributed, allowing movement. Once the control is released, the valve closes and the rod is held in position.

Because of this design, bloc o lift locking gas springs can maintain positions even under load, making them suitable for applications where both adjustment and stability are required.

Bloc O Lift locking gas springs come in three main types, each suited for different load directions and applications:

• Flexible (Elastic) Locking Gas Springs – Lock at any position while allowing slight movement, providing cushioning. Typical applications: office chair backrests, medical beds, adjustable desks, patient support equipment.
• Rigid Locking Gas Struts in Extended Direction – Firm lock when extended, resisting outward movement. Typical applications: height-adjustable desks, armrests, wheelchair supports.
• Rigid Locking Gas Springs in Compressed Direction – Lock when compressed, preventing further inward movement. Typical applications: work platforms, inspection hatches, equipment covers, medical panels.

Bloc O Lift locking gas springs are engineered to support both movement and secure positioning across a wide range of applications.

Key advantages include:

• Position locking capability for stable adjustment
• Optional overload protection for system safety
• Smooth operation via release mechanisms
• Built-in damping to reduce impact
• Reliable performance under heavy use

When selecting a bloc o lift gas spring or a compatible replacement, several key parameters should be considered:

• Force (N): Determines the lifting or supporting capacity
• Stroke (mm): Defines the travel distance
• Mounting Type: End fittings and installation geometry
• Locking Direction: Extension or compression locking requirement

Matching these parameters ensures proper fit and reliable performance. If you are not sure how to select the correct model, you can contact our engineering team for professional support.
