Light-Weight Gas Spring with Aluminum Pressure Tube
Light-weight construction is one of the big topics among automotive manufacturers, since it is key to drastically lowering fuel consumption. Consequently, it is a logical step for STABILUS to add light-weight gas springs to its product line.
Depending on their dimensions, the use of aluminum pressure tubes can save up to 30% in weight compared to conventional gas springs with steel pressure tubes. Their polished, shiny metal surface and attractive design give these gas pressure springs the look of a true high-tech product.
