132 Issue7.2014 Specifications subject to change 132 TandemGasSpringsGST-40 ACEoffers tandemgassprings specially for heavy flaps andhoodswith a largeopening angle. These are characterisedby ahigh initial force and lowend force. The tandemgas springs have twopressure tubeswithdifferent extension forces andprogression curves, and are therefore able to cover two force ranges. The tandemgasspringsaredesigned individuallyaccording to their use– free of chargeby theACEcalculationservice. Theyaremanufacturedespecially for your application. The force ranges are aligned precisely toeachother and are adjusted to the required kinematics. Tandemgas springs are maintenance free and ready for installation.
