Force Calculation in relation to your Gas Spring.


P = Weight of the moving appliance in Kg.
X = Horizontal distance between the centre of gravity (P) and the pivot point (mm).
Y = Extended perpendicular distance between the air spring and the hinge (mm).

P = X = Y =

FormulaNecessary Force+10% (We recommend a 10% increase)
P*X/Y Kg Kg
  • 1Kg equals 10 N
  • The total force can be distributed between various pneumatic springs
