Choosing A Gas Spring For Storage Beds

Why Newton rating, lid weight and mechanism geometry must be evaluated together.

Choosing A Gas Spring For Storage Beds

A Newton rating is not the complete answer

A gas spring is identified by its nominal force, but the correct application also depends on lid weight, centre of gravity, mounting points, opening angle and the paired mechanism.

Evaluate the complete system

The same force rating may behave differently when lever length or mounting geometry changes. Confirm the number of gas springs and whether the application requires a matched pair.

Send application data before ordering

Provide the mechanism reference, lid dimensions, approximate weight, mounting distances and required quantity. ODI Furnex can use this information to discuss available product options.
