Nitrogen Gas Springs and Accessories - Electronic Fasteners Inc

UniForce ® SYSTEMUniForce, as the name implies, delivers precisely the sameforce at each gas spring regardless of its location within the die.UniForce system gas springs are identical to the self-containedsprings except the spring’s internal valve is removed and afitting is installed to permit the attachment of hoses or othertypes of adapters. All UniForce system springs will be deliveredwith the fitting already installed.Every component part of the system, from the control panelto the spring itself, is rated for a working pressure of 5,000 psi(345 bar) or greater, with a safety factor of 4:1. A rupture disc,rated at 5000 psi ±10%, is located in each control panel therebyensuring the pressure can never be greater than design pressure.We offer one type of hose (in two sizes) and two differenttypes of hose ends and adapters. The first is the standard 37°JIC swivel connectors (found on page 27), with metal-to-metalsealing; and the second type (found on page 28), offers O-ringsealing at every connection in the system. When properlyinstalled, both types offer leak-free connections. However, the37° type requires a more precise torque value during assembly.The O-ring face seal is more forgiving in this regard and mayalso be less inclined to unloosen during heavy, continuousvibration.Not all mountings are compatible with the UniForce system.See each mounting type for details.Note: Specify “U” for all springs usedwith UniForce system and whichconnector type, O-ring or JIC, to beinstalled.Examples:URG1500-025 - JICURG750-080 - O-ring
