Types
According to damping principle, Stabilus boot gas springs can be:
Hydraulic. They provide sharp stop at the end of spring travel. Their design features an oil chamber. When the piston leaves the gas-filled cavity, it contacts with oil. Viscosity and quantity of the lubricant define the damping range.
Dynamic. They operate smoothly. They can stop in mid positions. They are convenient at boot lid opening in a confined space.
The most popular lines of the brand spare parts are:
LIFT-O-MAT. Standard gas springs with hydraulic or dynamic deceleration.
LIFT-O-MAT Gas Spring Strut. They are equipped with a mechanic spring, which functions as a damper at severe cold – at about −30 ℃. In parts, loads are distributed equally between the gas and mechanic springs, so they are perfect for lifting and lowering heavy weight.
LIFT-O-MAT TCV. They have additional gas-filled chamber with the valve.High temperature causes the valve to close and the parts pressure to lower, which provides for smoother rod movement. At negative temperatures, the valve opens, the inner pressure increases and the boot lid is securely held in the opened position.
INTER-STOP. These are gas-filled parts with the valve on the piston. They have several fixed positions. They hold the weight at various angles.
LIFT-O-MAT ALU. They do not differ from the standard springs by functions and working principle. But they are made of aluminium, which reduced their weight by 30%.
