Traction gas spring:

A traction gas spring is actually a reverse action push gas spring where the rod is in the retracted position and force is applied to pull it out.
The traction gas spring can be installed in any location where there was previously a coil spring or where operation is required (e.g. a horizontally operating up-and-over door).

Traction gas springs are manufactured without end position damping, the internal parts being lubricated by a special grease chamber.

Theoretical construction of a traction gas spring:

Designation:

MSH08/23 – 4 – 1F1F – 200 – 150 – xx

MSH: Moliton Standard traction (in hungarian terms)
08/23: rod diameter (mm)/ tube diameter (mm)
4: type of damping – only 4, i.e. end position without damping can be selected!
1F: pipe side coupling (see end connector catalogue)
1F: rod end coupling (see end connector catalogue)
200: F- tensile force (newton)
150: L- stroke (mm)
xx: minimum installation length ( L+72mm+2x length of end connectors)
