Zusammenfassung:A gas spring assembly includes an interior piston tube disposed within an interior pressure chamber of a piston. A bushing is slideably disposed between an annular wall of the piston and the interior piston tube. A catch is attached to the interior pressure tube, and includes a body having a cylindrical portion defining a circular cross section perpendicular to and concentric with a longitudinal axis of the piston. The body of the catch includes an exterior surface defining an outer diameter. A bore extends along a bore axis into the cylindrical portion of the body, and defines a circular cross section having a bore diameter, perpendicular to and concentric with the bore axis. The bore diameter of the bore is less than the outer diameter of the cylindrical portion of the body. The catch is formed by plunging an end mill into the cylindrical portion of the catch.
