Tension Gas Springs from Industrial Gas Springs.

Industrial Gas Springs supplies a complete range of tension gas springs. Sometimes referred to as traction springs, these units operate the opposite of compression gas springs. They retract rather than extend.

Mounting constraints often do not allow for the use of compression springs.

Examples include:

• Doors and access panels hinged horizontally at the bottom.
• Any type of cover or lid that must be pulled open or pulled shut.

Tension gas springs also find many uses as tensioners on mechanical assemblies and belt drives. In order to accommodate a wide range of force and stroke requirements, IGS offers these units in both mild steel and stainless steel construction in a number of sizes.

Please contact IGS to discuss your specific requirements.

In order to ensure that the correct model gas spring, gas strut, or gas prop is selected, IGS offers free Design Application Services for all tension gas spring applications. Please refer to the Gas Spring Design Services page (http://www.indgassprings.com/pages/des_hforce.html) for more details
