Universal fit for RV, car, boat and bus

These 10 inch black gas struts come as a pair with 40 lb or 178 N of force each. Metal construction and included connectors suit medium to heavy lids, hatches and covers on recreational vehicles, cars, boats and buses. Simple hand tools are all that is needed for installation in a few minutes.

Check mounting points and clearances

Verify that the 10 mm by 6 mm hole pattern matches your existing brackets and that the 15 mm housing diameter clears surrounding panels. The extended length reaches 24 cm and the compressed length is 15 cm, so confirm the available travel before ordering. Included round connectors measure 29 mm by 19 mm and rectangle connectors measure 51 mm by 15 mm by 20 mm.

Sealed gas spring with no moving parts to wear

The nitrogen-charged cylinder operates silently and requires no maintenance in normal use. Ambient temperature changes will alter internal pressure slightly but the 40 lb rating remains consistent across typical automotive environments. No external power or lubrication is needed once installed.

Questions about this item

What hardware comes in the box and do I need to buy extra screws or brackets?

The package includes two gas springs, ten screws, two round connectors and two rectangle connectors so no separate fasteners are required.

Which length and force rating should I choose for my application?

Each strut extends to 24 cm, compresses to 15 cm and provides 40 Lb or 178 N of force; select this version when those dimensions and pressure match your lid or hatch.

How much lift will one 40 Lb strut actually give when installed on a hatch?

One strut supplies 40 Lb or 178 N of constant force through its 9 cm rod stroke, holding a hatch open once the geometry matches the 24 cm extended and 15 cm compressed lengths.
