Suspension dampers are integral components of modern cars, without which they are completely impossible to imagine. However, shock absorbers have found applications in the body elements of a car - the hood and trunk lids. True, the shock absorbers of the hoods and trunks rather make the use of the vehicle even more convenient and, to a certain extent, safe. Although they are arranged quite simply and fail less often than suspension components, they can still bring a lot of trouble to the car owner in the event of a breakdown.

The operation of the MAXGEAR brand Gas Spring, rear windscreen

The trunk lid, as well as the hood of a vehicle, can treacherously drop down at the most inopportune moment, causing injury to a motorist. Car manufacturers have found a simple and elegant solution - to install special shock absorbers that simplify access to the trunk or engine compartment, as well as guarantee safety when working. They have several names: the most common "gas spring", often used "stop", "torsion", less often "shock absorber".
