Coding method on gas spring models
We usually give a code on the gas spring models, which consist of numbers and letters. It requires us to know what they mean, and why suppliers mark them as such. That help us to get more details from gas spring models.
Peir gas spring works as industrial accessories. It offers the function of supporting, buffering, height and angle change. It consists of a steel cylinder with gas under pressure. And a rod that slides in and out of the cylinder through a sealing guide. It can also have control elements(for controlled ones) and end fittings
A coding method for some gas spring type
The code of gas spring model, in general, composes of the following important parts. They include type code, the diameter of the piston rod, the outer diameter of the cylinder, the stroke, the extension length, and the end fittings. Besides, the working method, the end joint fitting, and the small expansion force are all necessary iinformation.
Among them, you must know the code of gas spring type. The compression gas spring is YQ; SKQ stands for the height adjusted one and JKQ the angle adjusted one. The balance gas spring is PQ, and LQ stands for traction gas spring.
The regulations are as follows:
×××××/×× – ××× – ×××（×× – ××）×××
1. Various gas spring codes:
compress gas spring YQ,
height adjustable gas spring SKQ(KQ),
angle-adjustable gas spring JKQ,
balanced gas spring PQ,
traction gas spring LQ
2. The diameter of the piston rod(d), the outer diameter of the cylinder(D), the stroke(S). And the extension length (L) in mm, and the extension force in Newton (N).
3. Type code of joints(end fittings): single-core o type, double lug u type, single lug l type. spherical hinge type b, thread m type, taper s type.
Marking Example of Gas Spring Models:
Description: compressed gas spring piston with 10mm rod diameter. The outer diameter of the cylinder is 22mm, with a 260mm stroke and an extension length 630mm. Rod end connector is integral, the end fitting is a ball hinge, tensile force Small 380N.
Marked as: YQ10/22-260-630(O-B)380
