Used widely for both domestic and commercial applications, the self contained power unit in a gas strut provides controlled lift, lowering or counter-balance force wherever a cover, door or panel is either opened or closed. Loss of pressurisation can lead to safety or security breaches, and immediate rectification is recommended to prevent avoidable accidents or other losses.

Typical applications include covers and guards on machinery, all aspects of the transport industry including cars, aircraft, boats, trains and all motor vehicles including farm equipment. Office machines, adjustable furniture, automatic opening windows and orthopaedic beds are also among high volume OEM applications which utilise gas springs.

These precision quality products are used wherever strong, concentrated force is required. The markets for PowerTeam products include manufacturing, construction, motor vehicle, mining, utilities, shipyards, rescue operations and many more. Due to the exceptionally high build quality all SPX products are covered by a Marathon Lifetime Warranty.
