Where controlled closing or opening is required for lightweight to medium duty lids, Wixroyd soft-down stays are the best solution. The unique integrated dampening device of the soft down stay, achieved through a precision restrictor valve within the stay, enables doors, panels, lids and hatches to close silently and smoothly without slamming. As well as reducing wear and mechanical stress on the doors and hinges, fingers are less likely to be trapped.
Our technical engineers would be delighted to discuss your requirements with you and recommend the best options for your application, so why not give us a call to find out more?
