Proper Disposal of Gas Springs When gas springs are no longer needed, they should be disposed of in an environmentally correct manner. In general the following applies: The pressure tube must be clamped between two V-blocks without being deformed and in such a way that dimension X is at least 25mm see point 2.
Therefore the necessary personal protection eye and face protection, covering the sawing location should be applied before sawing or drilling. For lockable Stabilus product the locking mechanism must be opened by actuating the release pin until the piston rod has been completely extended.
After degasing actuate the release pin a second time to exhaust any remaining gas pressure in the product. Observe the necessary safety precautions according to Pt. DORSTOP products must be completely extended before degasing The unpressurized product must be disposed of according to waste management laws.
Gas springs and dampers are filled with oil. Waste oil must be disposed of according to waste management laws. Do not allow waste products into soil or natural bodies of water.
Need more information on our products? Avoid modifications and manipulations, impacts, tensile stress, heating, painting, and removal of the imprint. Be on the safe side: Do not install defective or improperly altered products. Of course, there are also gas springs for more extreme applications. Gas springs are maintenance-free!
They do not require greasing or lubrication. They are designed for their corresponding applications and will work flawlessly for many years. Store gas springs with the piston rod pointing down. Actuate the gas spring after 6 months of storage. Avoid damage: Do not transport gas springs as bulk material. Is your current gas strut in need of replacement? No problem.

Gas springs must be customized for special applications — on the basis of specifications and drawings. Unless designed for non-orientation specific installation , install gas springs, so that the piston rod points down in the inactive state.
This will ensure optimum lubrication of the guide and sealing system at all times. In order to maintain longevity, gas springs must not jam or be subjected to bending or lateral forces.
We offer suitable end fittings, such as angle joints, designed to ensure a non-jamming alignment during installation. The functional safety of gas springs primarily come from their smooth piston rods and seals that keep the gas pressure on the inside.
