Push-to-Unlock Gas Springs — Pressure-Release Locking
Compress to the shortest length to lock and press again to release, with no external levers or cables. Configurable force and stroke.
Push-to-Unlock Gas Springs: Features
Locking engages by compressing the rod to the shortest position and releases with an extra press, without external cables or handles.
A simple press down releases the lock and the rod extends at the configured nominal force. No external cables, handles or buttons required.
Does not occupy too much internal space. Ideal for height adjustable desk gas springs, medical beds and styling chairs where external release mechanisms won't fit.
Maintains compression state reliably. Suitable for all kinds of situations that need to be locked.
