One factor that affects the force required to operate a panel is the ambient temperature. In cold weather, the panel might lose its ability to stay open securely. High temperatures, on the other hand, hinder the closing process. It then takes a lot of effort to close the panel. Our gas springs with a strut provide the solution for neutralizing the influence of temperature. In the model with a strut, the Stabilus gas spring is combined with an inner or outer mechanical spring. This design combines the advantages of the gas spring (speed control, end-position damping) with those of the mechanical spring (low temperature dependence). Load is distributed between the gas spring and the mechanical helical spring. As a result, the temperature’s effect on the extension force is considerably reduced. This diminishes closing forces at normal and high temperatures without increasing the opening force in the cold (-30°C). user-friendly handling of heavy panels speed control and end-position damping for an impressive set of specifications simple installation simple integration into your product design thanks to compact construction size (particularly with internal spring) concealed installation under the roof or in the trunk-space water channel (spring is covered)
