Product catalog summary

Overview

This comprehensive technical documentation covers gas springs with fixing elements compliant with Ford Standard WDX-Global, produced by the Läpple Group. It includes detailed product specifications, ordering codes, dimensional data, performance characteristics, mounting options, accessories, and a global contact directory for FIBRO GmbH and associated companies.

1. Product Specifications and Standards

The gas springs are designed according to Ford Standard WDX-Global and WDX 356204, featuring a wide range of nominal strokes and initial spring forces from 42 daN up to 18,300 daN. Multiple execution types exist for standalone use or composite connections, with fixing elements such as collar flanges, split clamping flanges, pedestal foot clamps, and adapter baseplates. Variants include Standard Gas Springs, POWERLINE series with increased force, BM and H series, DMS and TM series, each identified by specific Ford and FIBRO order codes.

2. Performance Characteristics and Diagrams

Performance diagrams illustrate relationships between initial spring force, charge pressure (typically 50–150 bar), stroke length, and pressure rise factor. The pressure rise factor accounts for displacement effects but excludes external influences, providing critical insight into force behavior during compression and extension. These diagrams assist in selecting appropriate gas springs based on application requirements.

3. Execution Types and Fixing Elements

  • Standalone Use (S): Marked as 'S' or '1' in Ford codes.
  • Composite Connection without Valve (P): Marked as 'P' or '2'.
  • Fixing Elements: Include collar flanges (TM), split clamping flanges (BM), pedestal foot clamps (H1S, H2S), and adapter baseplates conforming to DIN standards.

Each fixing element has specific order codes and dimensional parameters to ensure compatibility and secure mounting.

4. Ordering Codes and Nomenclature

Ordering codes follow a structured format combining base product numbers, Ford Standard WDX codes, and execution suffixes indicating mounting and valve configurations. Examples include formats like 2480.1□.□□□□□.□□□.300□ and Ford codes such as 356203-□□-□□-DM□. Accurate use of these codes is essential for correct product selection and procurement.

5. Dimensional Data and Mounting Details

Extensive tables provide precise dimensions for each gas spring variant, including stroke lengths (10 mm to 125+ mm), fixing hole sizes and positions, overall and minimum lengths, diameters, flange dimensions, and thread sizes (M6, M8, M10, M16, M24). Mounting examples illustrate configurations for pedestal foot clamps, flange plates, and composite connections, with corresponding order numbers for accessories and fixing elements.

6. Valve Types and Locations

Valves are specified as G1/8", M6, or M3 depending on the model. Some composite connection variants omit valves to comply with Ford standards.

7. Accessories and Installation Recommendations

  • Adapter baseplates are delivered pre-fitted and conform to DIN standards, with specified tightening torques (e.g., M8 = 18 Nm, M10 = 34 Nm).
  • Connection fittings include rotating joints for hoses and adapters.
  • Accessories such as gauging hoses (straight and angled, various lengths), threaded joints, couplings, and control fittings for pressure monitoring are detailed.
  • Proper tightening of fixing screws and use of recommended accessories ensure secure assembly and system integrity.

8. Contact and Representation Directory

The document concludes with a detailed directory of national and international representatives, distributors, and contact points for FIBRO GmbH and the Läpple Group. It includes addresses, phone/fax numbers, emails, and websites covering Germany and numerous countries worldwide, facilitating customer support and sales inquiries.

Critical Information Summary

  • Gas springs cover a broad range of forces (42 daN to 18,300 daN) and strokes, suitable for diverse industrial applications.
  • Fixing elements and mounting options comply strictly with Ford Standard WDX specifications, ensuring compatibility and ease of installation.
  • Performance diagrams provide essential data for selecting springs based on force, stroke, and pressure requirements.
  • Ordering codes are detailed and must be used precisely to obtain correct product variants.
  • Accessories and installation guidelines support secure and reliable assembly.
  • The contact directory supports global customer engagement and technical support.

Note: All data and specifications are subject to change; users should verify current information before ordering or installation.
