Release systems

Tools for operating blockable gas springs

To move the blockable gas springs, the release pin at the end of the rod or cylinder must be pressed or held in motion. Due to the position of the release pin, direct manual operation rarely comes in handy, due to difficult accessibility or ergonomic aspects. Different release system helps to solve this problem.

Release system with arm

It is a simple, robust unit, that is located directly at the end of the release pin. The arm can be tilted forward or backward to operate. Thanks to the holes perpendicular to each other, it is also possible to mount the suspension in paralell or in a perpendicular position. It can be used with any type of blockable gas spring.

Release system with bowden

It is a complex, robust unit, that is located directly at the end of the release pin, but with the help of the bowden, the release position can be placed anywhere. The release of the gas spring are operated by pulling the bowden. It can be used with any type of blockable gas spring.
