Aluminum Locking Gas Springs
Locking gas springs incorporate a mechanism enabling the user to “lock” the rod at any point in its travel through a plunger that protrudes from the rod. When this plunger is depressed the rod is free to operate as normal. When the plunger is released, which may be at any point in the stroke, the rod is locked in that position.
All IGS locking gas springs are also offered with an aluminium body. These aluminium locking gas springs are mainly used by the Aerospace industry for weight and fuel efficiency considerations.
