Gas Spring For Automobile (Automobile) Applications

Automotive gas springs—also known as gas-filled springs or gas struts—are self-contained cylinders that use pressurized nitrogen gas to create a pushing or damping force. They are commonly used in vehicles to:

• Assist the lifting of heavy panels such as hoods and tailgates
• Provide smooth and controlled opening/closing of compartments
• Reduce the physical effort required for access panels or seats
• Improve safety by preventing sudden slams or free-falls

Gas springs are essential in modern vehicle design for ergonomic operation, improved durability, and a premium user experience. Compared to traditional coil springs or mechanical hinges, gas springs offer precise control, minimal maintenance, and a sleek, compact design.

At India Auto Springs Pvt. Ltd., we offer a wide range of automotive gas springs, suited for various components and vehicle types:

• Tailgate / Boot Gas Springs : Helps lift and hold vehicle tailgates with ease. Ensures smooth upward motion and soft closure without slamming.
