Welcome to our guide on marine gas struts! If you've been searching for the perfect solution to enhance the functionality and safety of your boat, you're in the right place.
What are Marine Gas Struts?
Marine gas struts, also known as gas springs or gas lift supports, are essential components designed to assist in the lifting, lowering, and supporting of various marine applications. They use compressed gas to exert force, making heavy hatches, lids, and doors easy to maneuver with minimal effort.
Key Benefits of Marine Gas Struts
Effortless Operation: Say goodbye to heavy lifting! Gas struts make opening and closing hatches and compartments a breeze.
Improved Safety: Prevent accidental slamming and potential injuries with controlled and smooth motion.
Durability: Designed to withstand the harsh marine environment, gas struts are resistant to corrosion and rust.
Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications on your boat, from engine hatches to storage compartments.
Applications of Marine Gas Struts
Hatches: Easily lift and secure engine hatches, deck hatches, and cabin doors.
Lids: Assist in opening and closing storage compartment lids and tackle boxes.
Doors: Provide support for heavy doors, ensuring they remain open when needed.
How to Choose the Right Marine Gas Strut
Measure Your Application:
Measure the length and width of the hatch or door you're supporting.
Determine the weight of the item to ensure the strut can handle the load.
Select the Correct Force:
Gas struts come in various forces measured in newtons (N). Choose a strut with the appropriate force rating for your application.
Material and Finish:
Opt for high-quality materials like stainless steel or powder-coated finishes to resist corrosion and ensure longevity.
