Safety locking shroud gas spring
Econoloc ArvinMeritor

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.
