Gas spring (1) consists of body (2), guide assembly (7) forming compression chamber (4) with body that contains gas (G) and lubricant (L), and piston (5) with rod (6) that slides in the guide assembly so that the gas exercises return force on it. The guide assembly is without a lubrication chamber or has one of reduced volume, and the piston is designed to disperse lubricant in compression chamber to lubricate rod when piston moves. The gas spring (1) consists of a body (2), a guide assembly (7) forming a compression chamber (4) with the body that contains a gas (G) and a lubricant (L), and a piston (5) with a rod (6) that slides in the guide assembly so that the gas exercises a return force on it. The guide assembly is without a lubrication chamber or has one of reduced volume, and the piston is designed to disperse lubricant in the compression chamber to lubricate the rod when the piston moves. The piston has a collar (8) to limit its stroke and an agitator (21) of a different material round the collar to disperse lubricant in the compression chamber. The guide assembly has two annular grooves with seals (15, 16), the one nearest the compression chamber being asymmetrical to favor the return of lubricant.
