As gas spring designers when we look to size a gas spring for a customer there are two fundamental questions we consider;
As a rule, the greater the mass to be moved and / or the greater the distance it needs to move the bigger the spring diameter needs to be.
Of course, the actual sizing of the spring is more involved than this and several other factors need to be taken into consideration such as mounting restrictions, centre of gravity etc. for this reason we use our application enquiry form which you can download by clicking here.
