Gas springs for machine building

In machine building, gas springs hold machine guards and heavy covers; dampers cushion closing; lockable gas springs fix position; tandem (RSS) types serve large flaps. TPK Vesta partners with plants that need precise parameter-based selection.

TPK Vesta product range

Full catalogue range: standard (S) — over 5,600 items, dampers (D), lockable compression (LC) and extension (LE), elastic lock (L), rigid lock both ways (VSTLB), tandem (RSS), traction (C). Selection by D1, D2, C1, C2, N1, A/Z mounts or Stabilus / Suspa / Bansbach marking.

Typical machine-building assemblies

  • Machine guards — gas springs and dampers
  • Line access panels — standard and lockable gas springs
  • Special vehicle hoods — tandem and reinforced types
  • Lift tables and service bays — gas springs, hydrolifts

VST gas springs — global brand analogues

We manufacture all main VST gas spring types — full Stabilus, Suspa, Bansbach analogues. Lockable, tandem, dampers for serial fitting and upgrades. “Industrial equipment” is one of the largest project segments in TPK Vesta CRM.

Engineering of any complexity

We calculate N1 (force), C1 (rod stroke), C2 (extended length), A/Z mounts and service life. An 8,000+ article database and engineering calculation. Design from scratch — non-standard geometry, locking, tandem — from prototype to batch.

Stabilus, Suspa, Bansbach stock

Original gas spring stock for urgent line stops. Send the part number — we check availability or propose VST.

FAQ

Does the catalogue include tandem and lockable gas springs?

Yes: tandem (RSS), lockable compression (LC) and extension (LE), elastic lock (L), rigid lock VSTLB. Non-standard tasks get a custom calculation.

Can I get a calculation from a drawing?

Yes. Send a drawing, 3D model or assembly photo — we prepare gas spring or damper selection and a quotation.
