Hydraulic gas spring stay strut designed to lift and hold cabinet doors smoothly and quietly while adding durable, attractive support. Key benefits Effortless opening and controlled closing: the gas spring provides consistent lift assist and damps movement so doors open with minimal effort and close without slamming. Safer, longer-lasting cabinets: reduces stress on hinges and hardware, prevents sudden falls, and keeps doors stably held in the open position. Clean, durable appearance: heavy-duty steel construction with a stylish spray paint finish resists wear and looks good in kitchens, closets, offices, and workshop cabinets. Features and performance Function: hydraulic gas spring stay strut for lift-up and stay-open cabinet doors; smooth, quiet operation for everyday use. Material: heavy-duty steel body with spray paint finish for strength and corrosion resistance. Load capacity options: available in 40N to 150N strengths to match door weight and balance. Weight support: suitable for cabinet doors weighing approximately 4 kg up to 15 kg, depending on strut strength and mounting geometry. Compatibility and sizing Choose the correct strength (40N–150N) based on door weight and how you mount the strut — higher N values provide more lift. Sizing reminder: measure your cabinet door and mounting points before ordering; do not rely on Amazon’s size chart alone to determine the correct model. Practical applications Kitchen wall cabinets: supports overhead lift-up doors so you can access contents without holding the door open. RV or boat cabinets and overhead storage: provides reliable, vibration-tolerant support in mobile environments. Office and workshop storage: ideal for keeping compartment doors open while working or organizing tools and supplies. Why customers choose this strut Reliable hydraulic action for consistent performance over time. Robust steel construction for heavy-use environments. Multiple strength options to match a wide range of door sizes and weights. Ordering tips Determine your door weight and mounting geometry, then select the appropriate N-rating (40N–150N). Double-check measurements and mounting requirements before purchase to ensure the correct fit; do not rely solely on marketplace size charts.
