Lift Cylinder

 Gas Lift Cylinder

It would seem that the design of the shock absorber is as simple and reliable as possible. In practice, Lift Cylinder failure is a common occurrence. First of all, an elementary marriage is possible. However, most often the device breaks due to a seal failure. Temperature changes lead to metal deformation, and rubber seals dry out over time. The gas leaves the cartridge and the entire system stops working.

To test, you will need two hard surfaces. One as a base, and the second you will press on the gas cartridge. Two small pieces of wood will do. If the gas lift is pressed to its full length without any problems and returns to its original position, then everything is fine.

The process of removing a glass may have its own characteristics depending on the specific model of the chair. On some chairs it sticks out – you will need to carefully knock it out by securing the crosspiece. Naturally, having previously dismantled the gas cartridge. In the worst cases, you will have to carefully remove the cross with a mallet right in the air.

At best, you will need to carefully “knock” the gas lift out of its mount. However, chairs with more specific fastenings are also available for sale. If you can’t knock out the gas lift, then use the services of the service. The main thing – do not hit the gas chamber under any circumstances – it is dangerous.

When buying a new gas lift, pay attention to the classes, and also do not forget to let it sit in the room for several hours. Having successfully completed the replacement, you will not have to waste money on buying a new chair. The most important thing is that during disassembly, do not hit the gas shock absorber under any circumstances.
