Essential Guide to Tanning Bed Shocks – Safety & Maintenance

In the tanning salon, you can easily raise the tanning bed canopy thanks to the support of the tanning bed shocks. When you sit down, the canopy is lowered smoothly and rests gently above it. After the sunbathing, the canopy can be raised again without any effort. This is all thanks to the shock absorbers hidden underneath that smoothly and safely raise or close the bathing bed.

Tanning bed shocks, also known as gas springs or hydraulic shocks, are components used to support the opening and closing of the canopy (the top part) of a tanning bed. They provide the necessary force to help lift and lower the canopy smoothly and safely, preventing sudden slamming or difficulty in handling. These gas shocks are commonly used in:

Choosing the right tanning bed shocks is essential to ensure smooth operation, proper support, and safety. Users need to consider the size, force, and fitting type of the shocks to match their tanning bed. Accurate measurement and correct selection prevent uneven lifting, reduce wear, and extend the life of both the shocks and the bed. Below are the detailed steps to select the right shocks:

Tanning bed shocks, or gas springs, typically need replacement when they can no longer hold the tanning bed canopy open or when it starts to sag or close unexpectedly. Here are some key indicators for when to replace tanning bed shocks:

Gas springs are integral components in many devices, including tanning beds, where they help manage the smooth opening and closing of the bed’s canopy. However, once gas springs lose pressure or start showing signs of wear, they cannot be repaired and must be replaced. This is because the internal gas chamber, which provides the necessary force, can no longer function effectively once compromised.

PRECAUTIONS: In the context of tanning beds, which often rely on two tanning bed gas springs for balanced operation, it’s essential to replace both springs simultaneously, even if only one has failed. Replacing just one can lead to uneven support, causing additional strain on the new spring and the bed’s structure. Over time, this imbalance can result in further issues, such as misalignment, increased wear, and potentially even safety hazards. By replacing both gas springs at the same time, you ensure that the tanning bed operates smoothly and maintains its structural integrity, providing a safe and consistent user experience.
