Econoloc
Econoloc gas springs eliminate the need for separate safety rods in critical lift-assist applications. They positively lock when fully extended, protecting the operator from potential injury in the event of overload or misuse.
The Econoloc is manually released by applying thumb pressure to the designated area of the safety locking shroud, allowing the gas spring to compress in a controlled manner. The safety locking shroud is finished with the same coating as the gas spring body, providing excellent corrosion resistance. A guide inside the shroud prevents scratching of the gas spring cylinder.
The Econoloc range of gas springs combine superior quality with the added sarefty feature required in many heavy duty applications such as trucks, construction machinery, switch gear and agricultural equipment. A single Econoloc gas spring is usually used in conjunction with a standard Swift & Sure version.

Benefits
An econoloc gives benefits over a standard gas spring due to the locking shroud that is fitted to the gas spring. This locking shroud ensures that the gas spring can not be closed unless this shroud is unlocked. This allows operators to work underneath a heavy application without the risk of injury.

Services & Quality
Econoloc shroud designs are rigorously tested to ensure that they will provide the required strength when they need it the most. This means that when the unlikely happens you can have confidence that the Econoloc shroud will stand firm.
