Gas Springs

Gas springs are found in scenarios requiring controlled lifting or lowering of loads without excessive force, such as in car boots. Engineered for maintenance-free operation and straightforward installation, these springs provide dependable support for raising hatches and securely maintaining them in an open position.

Each ACE gas spring is filled to a predetermined pressure aligned with the customer's requirement. With such a large range of options, it may seem daunting to select the correct spring and pressure, which is why we can offer help in sizing your springs based on your application details.

You may even benefit from using other ACE products to improve the application further (e.g. shock absorber or damping pads). Contact us at MacScott Bond for more information.

Gas Struts

Push Type:
The struts come in body diameters spanning from 8 mm to 70 mm, with forces ranging from 10 N to 13,000 N. A multitude of connections and end fittings, facilitate easy installation, while their lasting performance is ensured by their top-tier design and quality materials. Options include the standard springs for hoods, shutters, machine housings, etc., stainless steel springs in the same sizes but with food grade oil, and tandem springs optimised for heavy flaps and wide-angle applications.

Pull Type:
When tight spaces prevent the use of push type gas struts, ACE’s pull type springs offer the solution. These compact models, with body diameters ranging from 15 mm to 40 mm, use traction, and operating in opposite way to the push type springs. In this design, the gas pressure within the cylinder draws the piston rod inward. The pull type gas springs are also self-contained, maintenance-free and have a valve for adjusting the gas pressure. This allows them to cover forces spanning from 30N to 5,000N. These springs also come with a wide range of mounting options and end fittings.
