Custom-made gas springs (steel or stainless steel)

BIBUS (UK) Ltd offers a bespoke range of Bansbach Custom Gas Springs — fully configurable to your exact application requirements. Whether you need variations in stroke length, extension force, retraction speed, mounting options or material, these made‑to‑measure gas springs are tailored to fit your design and performance criteria perfectly.

Designed to provide controlled motion and support without external power, custom gas springs are ideal when off‑the‑shelf solutions won’t meet the demands of your mechanical system. They are widely used in industrial machinery, access hatches, ergonomic assemblies, OEM equipment and specialised mechanical systems where standard units don’t provide the right motion profile.

By selecting custom options during configuration, you can optimise your gas spring for desired force curves, precision movement, space constraints and environmental conditions. Our engineering team will help you define the best specification for your project, including force requirements, rod or body materials, and end‑ fitting types.

Key Features

• Full customisation of stroke, force, speed and mounting interfaces for tailored performance.
• Made‑to‑measure for specific applications where standard gas springs aren’t suitable.
• Configurable attributes include stroke length, initial force, body diameter and connection types.
• Wide material options, including stainless and carbon steel variants for different environments.
• Engineering support provided to determine optimal design, including installation diagrams and force curves.
• Suitable for industrial machinery, OEM equipment, access systems, ergonomic devices, and more.
• Advanced customisation tools and configurators available to define your specification.

Custom gas springs unlock motion solutions tailored to your design challenges, offering precise control, durability and ease of integration.
