Re: Gas springs and Q&A #Q695
As a robot inspector, absent better guidance, I was accept something labeled as a gas spring as a gas spring. To me. the Macmaster Carr is a gas spring. As opposed to a mountain bike gas shock, which is also a gas spring, but the QA has ruled the oil shock part makes it illegal. A little strange because the rule specifically allows a gas shock. All the gas shocks I know of use oil as the energy absorption mechanism required for shock absorption. So before today I would have considered a mountain bike shock legal. Your inspector may vary.
Lets hope somebody makes this clearer. This kind of vagueness isn't fair for teams or inspectors.
