Why the pin in lockable gas spring is failure?

Lockable gas spring is a type of gas spring that provides controlled and adjustable motion with the added capability of being locked in a specific position. This feature allows the user to fix the gas spring at a desired extension or compression, providing stability and security in various applications.
 
Lockable gas springs are commonly used in industries such as automotive, furniture, medical equipment, and aerospace, where controlled movement and secure positioning are essential. The lockable feature is particularly useful in applications where the gas spring needs to support a load in a fixed position, such as in adjustable hospital beds, vehicle tailgates, ergonomic chairs, and industrial machinery.

There may be multiple reasons for the failure of the top pin on the controllable gas spring, and the following are some possible reasons:

1. Wear and tear: Long term use can cause wear and tear on the ejector pin, causing it to lose its original elasticity and function.

2. Corrosion: If the controllable gas spring is exposed to a humid or corrosive environment, the ejector pin may be corroded and fail.

3. Material quality issues: If the material quality of the ejector pin is poor, it may cause cracks or deformation during use, resulting in failure.

4. Incorrect installation or use: If the ejector pin is subjected to incorrect force or pressure during installation or use, it may cause it to fail.

5. Design defects: If there are design defects in the controllable gas spring, it may lead to the failure of the ejector pin.

In order to avoid the failure of the top pin on the controllable gas spring, regular inspection and maintenance are necessary to ensure correct installation and use, and high-quality products should be selected.
