Unique-Bargains 14in 35 Lb Gas Strut Compressor 2pcs Black

Universal Gas Strut Pair

This pair of 14 inch gas struts suits RV, car, boat and bus applications where a hatch, bonnet or compartment cover needs reliable lift assistance. Each unit delivers 35 Lb of force to hold medium to heavy panels open hands-free. The black metal construction resists corrosion in exterior environments. Two pieces are included for balanced dual-sided installations.

Mounting Requirements

Installation uses simple hand tools and the supplied 10 by 6 mm mounting holes, with no special equipment needed. The 8 mm connecting rod and 18 mm housing diameter fit many factory brackets, freeing up workspace while the cover stays raised. Compressed length of 8.46 inches determines the minimum clearance needed when the panel is closed. Total length of 14.57 inches sets the maximum reach when fully extended.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under continuous use the 156 Newton rating per strut maintains consistent pressure to keep heavy lids open without sagging. The 5.32 inch rod stroke provides the travel range between the 8.46 inch compressed and 14 inch extended positions. Metal body construction dissipates heat during repeated cycles, preserving damping performance over time. The universal design accommodates vibration and temperature shifts common in automotive and marine service.
