Gas struts take the weight of lids, hatches, access panels and cabinet doors across workshop equipment, machinery enclosures and specialist vehicles, holding them open without spring tension or manual support. PartsForMachines lists gas struts as an Authorised Distributor and Seller, sourcing to the standards trade buyers need for replacements on professional equipment rather than light domestic fittings.
Selecting the correct strut comes down to four measured attributes: extended length, compressed length, stroke, and force rating. Force is specified in Newtons and must balance the panel weight and pivot geometry of the application. Fixed force gas struts suit panels with a consistent load and mounting geometry, while variable force gas struts (also listed as variable force gas springs) allow adjustment after fitting, making them the preferred choice where the load changes or where a close-enough force rating is being substituted during repair. Body diameter and end fitting type, typically ball socket or clevis, must also match the original specification.
When replacing a worn or seized strut, the safest starting point is the original part number on the strut body itself, which usually carries force rating, stroke and body diameter. Where that data is missing, measuring the extended and compressed lengths and checking the end fittings against the mount gives enough information to match a listed replacement. For 700mm gas strut applications in particular, confirming the stroke and Newton rating matters more than the body length alone. Metrol lines account for the gas strut in this section.
