Rigid-locking BLOC-O-LIFT gas springs are perfect for applications that need to remain fixed in position even when subjected to high external forces.
While the standard BLOC-O-LIFT is only filled with gas and provides elastic locking, the piston’s entire travel path of this model is filled with oil, thus providing rigid locking.
An additional separator piston separates the gas chamber from the oil chamber. Depending on the position, it provides different blocking forces in the extension direction (extension-locked) or the compression direction (compression-locked).
The separator piston also creates the advantage that the gas spring can be installed in any orientation.
