Welcome to...
Looking for a gas spring
replacement...
For over 40 years ACE has been successfully
manufacturing and supplying a wide range of
motion control products.
Industrial gas springs have always been a key part of the ACE product range
and today some 28 standard models with body diameters of 8 to 70mm are
offered, push and pull type, black coated steel and stainless steel.
However, despite having this successful range, ACE is always being asked
for the urgent replacement of gas springs to match other widely used
products from Stabilus, Suspa and many others.
Therefore, to meet this growing and ongoing demand for gas spring
equivalents from stock, ACE has introduced the new replACE range of
force adjustable gas springs.
Developed primarily to match the stroke, end fittings and installation length
of the most widely used Stabilus gas springs, the three RGS models offered
can provide equivalents for around 1000 standard Lift-O-Mat 6-15, 8-19,
10-22 and 14-28 products.
Product data sheets are shown here and a replACE/Stabilus cross reference
guide can be found at www.replacegassprings.co.uk
