Pull/Traction Gas Struts | Tension Gas Springs for Controlled Closing

The Nitrolift Pull/Traction Gas Strut, also known as a tension gas spring, is ingeniously engineered to work in the exact opposite way to a traditional compression strut.

In its relaxed state, the strut's piston rod is fully concealed inside the cylinder. When the rod is extended, the internal compressed gas generates a powerful tension force that actively and constantly attempts to pull the rod back into the cylinder.

This unique pulling action makes the Nitrolift strut the ideal solution for applications where a lid or flap is subject to gravity. It provides both a controlled, safe descent and assisted return to the original, closed position. This includes essential access points such as loft hatches, vehicle ramps, stairway covers, and heavy trailer doors.

Nitrolift proudly supplies a complete range of these high-performance, quality-tested tension gas springs, ensuring reliable operation for your toughest application
