Recliners & sofa adjustment — full furniture model with gas spring position highlighted in red
APPLICATION MODEL · Red highlights the gas spring position. Mounting layout varies by mechanism.
WHERE IT WORKS

Between the fixed seat frame and a moving backrest or adjustment linkage.

A release control allows adjustment; closing the valve holds the selected position. Elastic or rigid locking behavior must suit the seating mechanism.

Lockable gas springs & release controls →
Lockable gas spring with cable and release lever for controlled adjustment
Component options: lockable spring, release head, cable and lever. The quote identifies which parts are included in the supplied assembly.

Recliner backrests

A locking unit controls backrest positioning through the seat linkage.

Adjustable sofa sections

Headrest, armrest and backrest mechanisms have different travel and connection needs.

Release systems

Release heads, cables and levers are matched to the valve pin and required actuation. Extension force and locking load remain separate specifications.

SPECIFICATION & ORDER OPTIONS

Define the component in your quotation.

The quotation brings together the component, dimensions, connections and order quantity. An existing marking or drawing provides the starting specification; millimeters or inches are accepted.
