Gas Springs Legal? - Chief Delphi

That is why I think that the Chairman's Award is better. You can have a great robot and something weird happen to your alliance and you are out. If you have a great team and win the Chairman's Award you are in the Hall of Fame forever. - WEHickok [more]

Thanks again.

Do you have a specific product in mind for your application? 'Gas springs' ostensibly ought to be filled with gas, not hydraulic oil.

McMaster-Carr (who I'm loathe to recommend, at the moment) carries nitrogen-filled gas springs that satisfy <R46> as per update #3 and <R106>.
