250 mm gas spring strut

The Unique-Bargains gas spring strut measures 250 mm between mounting centres and delivers a 10 kg force. It is designed to lift, hold and counterbalance horizontally hinged doors, lids, hoods and canopies. The cylinder uses regulated gas and oil volume to control operating speed. A single rod is supplied in a black and silver finish.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Builders fitting a rear liftgate or similar hinged panel that requires approximately 100 N of assist force will find this unit matches the stated length and rating. Installations needing a different centre distance, a higher or lower force value, or a different end-fitting style cannot use this strut without modification.

Deciding specification: 10 kg force rating

The 10 kg (100 N) force rating is the single figure that determines whether the strut can support the intended panel weight. If the application demands more or less assist force, this part will not perform correctly.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 250mm gas spring strut and what step is often missed?

Mount the 250mm strut between the 10.2-inch centres using the threaded ends; the step often missed is aligning the rod downward so oil lubricates the seal during operation.

What maintenance or replacement will the 10kg force strut need later?

The sealed 100N cylinder requires no routine service; replace the unit once the 10kg force drops and the lid no longer stays open.

What limit appears first on the 100N gas spring under sustained use?

The 10kg force rating is the first limit; continuous cycling or high temperatures can reduce internal pressure below the 100N spec, causing the lid to sag.
