Honestly, I don't remember the mfr. I bought it from McMaster-Carr, though.

They have a strange on-line catalog that doesn't allow direct linking. So, search for "shock absorbing dampers". It should take you to page 1175. Scroll down to the Slam-Preventing Dampers. I used a 100lb extension damper. The exact part number will depend on your design and the amount of stroke that you need. I believe the one I used was the 4" stroke, p/n# 6521K53.
