Chair gas lifts—also called office chair gas cylinders or chair pistons—set the seat height of swivel chairs and stools. We supply complete columns and internal cylinders to chair factories and replacement-parts distributors, matched by extended and compressed height, travel and seat/base taper.
Horizon supplies chair-height gas lifts for swivel chairs and stools. A complete column and its internal cylinder are distinct ordering items, with different dimensions and interfaces.
For complete columns, the supply specification covers the outer tube, upper/lower tapers, adjustment travel and release button. Internal cylinders must be matched to the receiving column assembly.
Compare minimum and maximum assembled length, not only visible rod travel.
Match the seat-mechanism and base interfaces to the column drawing.
Identify the actuation position and control interface.
Specify stroke and any rotation or load requirements.
APPLICATION / 01Office & task chairsExplore applications ↗Use a dedicated specification for the chair-height gas lift. Identify the complete column or internal cylinder required, then match the original marking, drawing, seat and base interfaces, release operation and quantity.
APPLICATION / 02Work stools & drafting chairsExplore applications ↗Match the gas-lift column to the stool assembly and required working-height range. Send its complete dimensions, adjustment travel, seat and base connection details, release interface and order quantity.
Use the chair-column drawing and its measurement datums. A chair gas lift does not use ordinary eye-to-eye mounting references.
Identify the complete unit you are replacing. A chair column includes its outer tube, seat and base interfaces, and release arrangement; a bare internal spring is a different purchasing item.
Use the column drawing to compare the seat-mechanism taper, base taper, insertion lengths and release-button position. Ordinary ball-socket or eyelet dimensions do not identify a chair column.
Not necessarily. Keep the column drawing length, stroke and stated seat-adjustment range separate, and check the installed chair mechanism and base dimensions.
Price depends on the column or cylinder configuration, adjustment travel, interface dimensions, quantity and packing. Internal cylinders and complete columns are priced as separate items; list each configuration with its quantity.
The minimum order quantity is 100 pcs, and mixed models can go in one order. Samples take 3–5 days (charged; the fee is refunded when you place an order), and bulk orders take 15–20 days.
