SUSPA C16-18848 Pneumatic Spring

The SUSPA C16-18848 gas spring delivers 15 pounds of force across a 20-inch extended length, providing steady, controlled assist for opening, lifting, or holding panels and lids in equipment, workstations, machine housings, and cabinetry. As part of SUSPA’s Series 16 family, this compact pneumatic spring is designed for easy installation in tight spaces, offering predictable performance and long service life through precision manufacturing and high-quality seals. Gas springs in SUSPA's lineup are hydropneumatic adjustment devices; inside the pressure tube, an oil-filled damping element moderates motion during extension and retraction, reducing speed spikes and allowing smooth, quiet operation in everyday use. With a 20-inch extended length and a relatively light 15-lb force, the C16-18848 supports moderate lifts and gentle opening actions over a substantial stroke, making it suitable for enclosures where full travel is needed without abrupt stops. Some vendor listings identify the C16-18848 as sold without end fittings, so verify mounting hardware compatibility and any required adapters with your supplier before integrating this part into a project.
