High performance piston coatings ensure excellent resistance against abrasion, impact and corrosion. We provide protective covers for springs that may be subject to moving debris, or objects that could damage the piston surfaces.
At Metrol, we utilise the latest seal and wiper technology. These high performance polymers ensure durability and longevity and prevent spring contamination.
CUSTOM FIXING METHODS
Fixing a Metrol Gas Spring is never a problem. There are a range of options, including our very owncustom designed solutions. These include;
Threaded cylinders
Rear mount threads
Eye and clevis mounts
Rose end bearings
CE MARKED PRODUCTS
The scope of our product is so broad and immense due to our unique ability to manufacture CE marked gas springs.
These springs conform to the pressure equipment directive 68/2014/EU.
STAINLESS STEEL GAS SPRINGS
Marine, offshore, subsea, and food processing
They are specifically designed so that all exposed components of the gas spring can be manufactured using 316 and other stainless steels with high corrosion resistance properties, or are protected using specialist coatings.
Custom made end fittings
Food grade oil available
ROD SEALED VS BORE SEALED
Metrol manufacture both rod and bore sealed gas springs.
Bore sealed gas springs produce nearly twice the force of rod sealed springs for the same cylinder diameter, however, the length of the cylinder is much longer.
