A Slow Speed Hydraulic Force Hood Damper is a motion-control device designed to provide smooth, controlled opening and closing of hoods, lids, or access panels. This hood damper integrates hydraulic damping technology to ensure slow, steady movement, preventing sudden drops or rapid closures. It is commonly used in automotive, industrial, and machinery applications to enhance safety and durability.
Force range | Damping Force: 50N – 3000N (adjustable) |
Material | Cylinder body: steel (galvanized or sprayed) or stainless steel (corrosion resistant).Piston rod: hard chrome plated steel or stainless steel. |
Sealing material: high-quality fluororubber or polyurethane, effectively preventing dust and dirt from entering the gas spring, ensuring sealing and long-term use. | |
Operating Conditions | Applicable temperature range:Regular models: -20℃~+80℃; special models can withstand -40℃~+120℃. |
Installation
Distinguish between compression type (support force direction is consistent with installation direction) and tension type (reverse support)
Safety Features
Avoid using the machine at full stroke limit, and keep 10%~20% stroke margin to extend life. If frequent high-speed movement is required (such as a robotic arm), a high-response speed model should be selected.
Certification
Industrial applications require compliance with ISO 9001 or industry-specific standards (e.g. TS 16949 for the automotive industry)
● RoHS: Complies with environmental safety requirements, will not release harmful gases during long-term use, and protects the air quality in the car
● SGS: Independent product testing and verification, precise and controllable opening and closing force, easy and smooth operation
Customization options
● Customized options: Customized installation interface, providing a variety of standard joint options (ball head/fork head/eye head) Supports customized special joints, perfectly matching the original installation position
● Customized opening force, accurately calculate the required force according to the weight and size of the door panel, ensuring easy opening with one hand while maintaining a stable opening state
● Customized functional characteristics, optional anti-smashing rebound buffer function, customized safety design with limit protection
● Customized surface treatment and customized colors to perfectly match the car body
Automotive Industry
Glove Boxes & Center Consoles – Soft-close mechanisms use small dampers.
Industrial Equipment
Machinery & Robotics – Used in automated systems to prevent sudden movements.
Conveyor Systems – Controls the speed of moving parts for safety and efficiency.
