Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A piston assembly includes an outer shell, an end plate and an attachment column. A first flowed-material joint is disposed between and fixedly attaches the end plate and the outer shell to one another such that a fluid-tight seal is formed therebetween. A second flowed-material joint is disposed between and fixedly attaches the attachment column and the end plate to one another such that a fluid-tight seal is formed therebetween. A gas spring assembly and method that include the piston assembly are also included.
