Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus - Precision Control with Dynamic Damping. The Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus sets a new standard in controlled motion, leveraging dynamic damping for refined, adaptable performance. Instead of an oil column, this advanced lift support utilizes a longitudinal groove, called a velocity manifold, pressed into the tube wall. This design allows gas to flow around the piston, with the groove depth and geometry precisely controlling extension speed to match specific application requirements. Innovative Temperature Compensation: The Lift-O-Mat includes a Temperature Compensating Valve (TCV) inside the tube, managed by a temperature-sensitive bi-metal valve. This valve adjusts gas force based on environmental conditions: in cold weather, it allows extra gas force for enhanced performance, while in warm conditions, it locks away excess force for stability. Smooth, Reliable Operation: The expertly crafted groove gradually narrows toward the end of the stroke, providing a gentle, controlled stop with minimal impact. Made from high-quality materials and tuned for smooth function, the Lift-O-Mat offers OE-level performance and design, making it a versatile choice across industries like automotive and ergonomic equipment. Why Choose Lift-O-Mat? - Dynamic Damping: Gas flows continuously around the piston, regulated by a custom groove for precise extension control. - Highly Tunable: Groove depth and geometry can be customized for each application. - Temperature Compensation: The TCV ensures consistent operation across temperature changes. - Built to Last: Made from durable materials and engineered for long-lasting reliability. Choose Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus for a dynamic damping solution that ensures smooth performance, precise control, and a gentle stop, tailored to your application.
