Motion Dampers and Lid Stop Dampers

Uncontrolled movements when opening and closing, lifting and lowering lids are dangerous, uncomfortable, and stress on the material.

STABILUS motion and lid stop dampers from the STAB-O-SHOC product line will solve this problem.

Through their damping force, they support controlled motion during lifting and lowering of lid applications; they also reduce material wear by avoiding hard stops in the end position.

Properties/Characteristics

STAB-O-SHOC HD dampers from STABILUS are the most cost-efficient type for safe and reliable damping of uncontrolled movements.

As standard motion and lid stop dampers, they are characterized by a simple design, which makes them easy and inexpensive to manufacture. Further advantages are their high quality and safety levels, outstanding performance, and long service life.

STAB-O-SHOC oil-hydraulic motion or lid stop dampers come in two basic types; damping force is laid out either in the direction of tension or compression. It is characterized by a damping force required in only one direction of motion. It can also be varied path-dependent via the stroke by means of bypass grooves.

As simple lid end stop and motion dampers they are designed for vertical, orientation-specific mounting. However, when equipped with an additional, closed separating element, they can also be installed regardless of orientation.

Therefore, they are ideal as vibration dampers.
