Accurate load matching – Thanks to a wide, clearly listed force range
Force ratings are specified in newtons from 100N through 2000N, with guidance that 100N lifts about 10 kg. Selection advice explains how to choose a single strut or pair for a given mass.
Pick a rating that closely matches the load to get smooth opening motion and secure hold. Correct selection reduces the risk of underpowered or over-stressed units.
Fits many projects – With multiple open lengths shipped fully extended
Open lengths are listed by centre hole to centre hole and range from 150mm up to 1000mm; all units are shipped fully extended due to internal gas pressure.
Choose the listed open length that matches existing mounting centres to simplify installation. Plan for the extended state when handling and fitting to avoid surprises.
