The Vari-lift

If you require a gas strut for an unusual load or it needs to be adaptable enough to respond to a personal preference, then this is the product to consider. This gas strut can be used in the same situations as our fixed force compression gas struts. However, this product has the adaptability and responsiveness that might be required in certain situations.

An extremely useful aspect of the adjustable gas struts is that they can be used during product prototyping to attain the required force for fixed-force compression gas springs. They can also be used where the weight of your products varies between models and can be degassed to provide the perfect activity for your needs. You can learn more about the Vari-lift here.
