Our hydraulic dampers are designed for even the most demanding scenarios, providing smooth operations and effective motion control. Whether you work in manufacturing, engineering, or any industry where precise movement is vital, our bespoke dampers offer reliable performance. No matter the challenge, our dampers will ensure stability and steady operations for heavy machinery, delicate equipment, or intricate systems.
Hydraulic dampers serve a vital role in various applications by controlling movement, speed, and reducing vibrations. They can be found in a range of environments, from enhancing comfort to ensuring safety.
These dampers come in different configurations, including simple extension and compression dampers with or without gas. Additionally, bespoke blast mitigation solutions are used in military applications for optimal performance and protection.

Just like gas struts, dampers are often identified by their size. However, what sets our hydraulic dampers apart is that each one is custom-designed to meet the specific requirements of our customers. Unlike gas struts, we don’t carry a range of standard sizes through our distributor network. Instead, we collaborate closely with our customers to develop the perfect solution tailored to their needs. Our options span from a 6mm rod diameter to a 28mm tube diameter, ensuring we can accommodate a wide range of applications.
