What does the fixed force compression gas strut ‘Swift and Sure’ do?
Designed to lift heavy weights effortlessly and safely, our standard fixed force gas struts are found on vehicles, machine guards, access panels, lockers and lids. But, in reality, there is an almost limitless number of applications this range can be used on.
Camloc’s gas springs offer an innovative solution to the most demanding requirements. Fixed force gas springs can be set at any force required within the range to ensure the optimum performance for each customer application. By adjusting forces, oil levels, extension velocities and oil types the result is a level of precision unparalleled by any other type of spring. They can be used to provide a gentle touch or withstand harsh impacts and heavy loads.
Our standard gas strut has extensive options and a wide range of customisable features, including connectors, brackets, shrouds and stop and stay functions. The gas strut is entirely self‐contained, maintenance-free, and is charged under pressure with an inert gas (nitrogen).

Unlocking the Inner Workings of Gas Struts – How Do Fixed Force Gas Struts Work?
Gas struts are an essential part of the motion control solutions that we rely on every single day.
If you have a project that requires lifting, holding open, or counterbalancing an item, our fixed force compression gas struts might just be the perfect answer.
These ingenious devices are completely self-contained motion control solutions. They are charged under pressure with an inert gas and possess the characteristics of a compression spring. When combined with a slight change in force as they extend, they provide a controlled rate of movement.
Now, let’s talk about our most popular gas strut – the ‘Swift and Sure’. This beauty takes versatility and customisation to a whole new level. Not only can we adjust its physical dimensions such as diameter, length, and force, but we can also fine-tune several other parameters to create the optimum solution for your specific needs.
Want to alter the oil levels and types to enhance handling, performance, and damping characteristics? No problem. How about piston designs to ramp up or slow down the extension speed? Consider it done. And let’s not forget about material selection. We can use non-magnetic materials to make it compatible for particular environments.
