Econoloc Safety locking shroud

Econoloc Safety locking shroud Econoloc gas springs eliminate the need for separate safety rods in critical liftassist applications. 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 Econoloc is manually released by applying thumb pressure to the designated area of the locking shroud, allowing the gas spring to compress in a controlled manner. The locking shroud is finished with the same epoxy coating as the gas spring body, providing excellent corrosion resistance. A guide inside the shroud prevents scratching of the gas spring cylinder. The Econoloc range of gas springs combine superior quality with the added safety feature required in many heavy duty applications, such as trucks, construction machinery, switch gear and agricultural equipment. A single Econoloc gas spring can be used in conjunction with a standard Swift & Sure version. Benefits • Eliminates the need for separate safety rods in critical lift-assist operations • Operates automatically • Safe & easy to use • Self-contained unit • Maintenance free • BS EN ISO 9001 Registered Company

An extensive range of sizes and forces Gas springs are commonly referred to by their size. Typically, the four common sizes for gas springs are 6-15, 8-18, 10-23 and 14-28, although other sizes are available. The sizes directly relate to the diameter of the rod and the tube, for example an 8-18 will have a rod diameter of 8mm and a tube diameter of 18mm.
