Safety Locking Gas Strut with Shroud

Product Description

The safety shroud gas struts, Econoloc, eliminate the need for separate safety rods. They positively lock when fully extended, protecting the operator from potential injury in the event of overload or misuse. The safety feature of this product is the shroud that must be actively pressed to release the lock before movement occurs. They positively lock when fully extended, protecting the operator from potential injury in the event of overload or misuse.

Simple to use, they operate automatically. When the gas spring is fully extended, a spring-loaded locking shroud moves into place, preventing the gas spring from compressing. The shroud is manually released by applying thumb pressure to the designated area of the lock, allowing the gas spring to compress in a controlled manner.

The Econoloc range of gas springs combines superior quality with the added safety feature required in many heavy-duty applications, such as trucks, construction machinery, switch gear and agricultural equipment. Eliminates the need for separate safety rods in critical lift-assist operations.
