Gas Spring Shock Damper 44lb 17.7in
This gas spring provides lift support for trunk lids, rear doors, bed covers and horizontally hinged canopies. It delivers a 44lb force rating to hold panels open safely during loading or maintenance. The unit suits automotive, shop and furniture applications where controlled motion is required.
Check rod diameter and mounting points
Verify that your existing brackets accept an 8mm male thread diameter before ordering. Confirm the rod measures 0.3in by 7in and the tube measures 0.7in by 8.7in to match the current hardware spacing. Measure the extended length of 17.7in against the installation cavity to ensure proper fit.
Replaces worn or weak original struts
This damper restores smooth opening action when factory supports lose pressure or leak oil. The upgrade is worth it if the lid drops unexpectedly or requires manual propping. It is not for buyers needing adjustable force settings or a different stroke length than 17.7in.

Questions about this item
Does the package include mounting brackets or only the gas spring?
Only the gas spring strut is included; mounting brackets must be purchased separately.
How do I decide between the 20 Kg and 44 lb force ratings?
They represent the same force — 20 Kg equals 44 lb — so choose the unit you prefer.
Will the 17.7 in extended length fit my trunk lid?
The strut extends to 17.7 in; measure your lid's hinge-to-latch distance to confirm fit.
