What do hydraulic dampers do?
At Camloc, our dampers are purposefully designed to control movement, regulate speed, and minimise vibrations in a diverse range of applications. You’ll find our dampers deployed across various environments, from those aimed at enhancing comfort to those playing a vital role in saving lives.
When it comes to functionality, our dampers can be configured in several ways. Whether it’s a simple extension or compression damper, with or without gas, or a bespoke blast mitigation solution utilized in military applications—we have you covered.
How does the hydraulic damper work?
If movement needs to be controlled, an object stopped or vibration eliminated, this is likely the product you need.
Hydraulic dampers are self‐contained, maintenance‐free units that control the motion in applications requiring velocity control, deceleration control or to absorb shock impulses. They are designed and engineered to absorb, meter and control kinetic energy.
Available in both carbon steel and stainless steel, our dampers are specifically-designed to control or influence the characteristics of movement of the application. Applications requiring such control include CPR beds, weight adjustment dampers, automatic gate and lid closures.
Camloc specialise in the design and manufacture of hydraulic dampers. Available in a wide variety of materials and configurations, we do not simply make dampers that are gas struts with more oil and no gas. We have the experience, knowledge and ability to design and manufacture dampers for the most demanding of applications, whether that is mono tube or twin tube dampers.
Compression, extension, both directions or through dampers, we have the expertise to develop the right solution that is used within thousands of critical applications around the world.
For guidance on installing, mounting or maintaining dampers, please look at the Help Centre section of the website.
The hydraulic dampers are available in carbon and stainless steel. These compact, reliable units operate at a temperature range from ‐40c to +100c, making them highly durable and maintenance‐free.

What sizes do you offer?
Just like gas struts, dampers are often identified by their size. However, at Camloc, we take it a step further. Our hydraulic dampers are exclusively tailored to each customer’s specific requirements. Unlike gas struts, we don’t keep a standard range of sizes in stock through our distributor network. Instead, we prioritise working together with our customers to create the perfect solution for their unique needs. The options we offer are diverse, covering a broad spectrum from a 6mm rod diameter to a 28mm tube diameter. This level of customisation ensures that you’ll receive a hydraulic damper that precisely matches your application, guaranteeing optimal performance and satisfaction.
