CUSTOM DASHPOTS

Airpot Precision Dashpots are available in custom configurations which offer a range of sizes and capabilities likely to satisfy many requirements in which accurate and repeatable control of force and or impact is desired.  Custom Airpot Dashpots are available in 6 bore diameters ranging from .22 inches to 1.75 inches with either push, pull, or two-way damping. Within specified limits you can obtain a specific stroke, mounting length, rod type and rod end design. Additional custom configurations are possible with Airpot engineering collaboration. Please click here for a comparison of stock versus custom dashpots.
