The majority of a gas spring is made of metal and therefore can be recycled. If you are going to dispose of a gas spring yourself, e.g. if it has been damaged or has otherwise become unusable, bear in mind the following:

Depressurise the gas strut by drilling a 3 mm hole 20 mm from the tube end with it fixed in the vertical position and the piston rod down and in the fully extended position. Wear protective goggles, protective clothing and ear defenders when doing this as the spring will make a noise when pierced and you may be exposed to small amounts of oil and metal fragments.

Nitrogen is an inert gas and is neither explosive nor toxic. Drain the oil through the drilled hole by pressing in and pulling out the piston rod repeatedly if necessary. Recycle the waste oil in accordance with local regulations.

The gas strut can now be taken to a metal recycling centre in accordance with local regulations.

General

Q 1. What Are Gas Struts and How Do They Work?

A. Gas struts are self-contained, maintenance-free units that use pressurised gas and oil to deliver smooth, controlled motion for lids, hatches, and doors.

Q 2. What Can Gas Struts and Springs Be Used For?

A. Gas struts are versatile units used across industries for lifting, counterbalancing, damping, and supporting doors, hatches, machinery, vehicles, and more.

Q 3. Which Gas Strut is Right for You?

A. With various options available, the right gas strut can be selected based on material, size, or your specific application using our category filters.

Q 4. How to Select a Gas Strut for a New Application?

A. Use our free gas strut design service and provide full application details, as we can't recommend a strut without accurate specifications.

Q 5. Which Gas Strut End Fittings and Brackets Should Be Used?

A. We recommend using ball joints where possible to reduce side loading and extend strut life—use our free gas strut design service for tailored guidance.

Q 6. How Are Gas Struts Installed?

A. Install gas struts piston-rod down in a single plane using ball joints, keep them in a relaxed state, tighten end fittings, and rotate the cylinder if alignment is needed.

Q 7. Fitting brackets

A. Remove the retaining clip, secure the socket to the strut, press it onto the bracket ball until it clicks, then reinsert the clip to lock it in place.
