  • Q 1. What Are Gas Struts and How Do They Work?

    A. Gas struts are self-contained, maintenance-free units that use pressurised gas and oil to deliver smooth, controlled motion for lids, hatches, and doors.

  • Q 2. What Can Gas Struts and Springs Be Used For?

    A. Gas struts are versatile units used across industries for lifting, counterbalancing, damping, and supporting doors, hatches, machinery, vehicles, and more.

  • Q 3. Which Gas Strut is Right for You?

    A. With various options available, the right gas strut can be selected based on material, size, or your specific application using our category filters.

  • Q 4. How to Select a Gas Strut for a New Application?

    A. Use our free gas strut design service and provide full application details, as we can't recommend a strut without accurate specifications.

  • Q 5. Which Gas Strut End Fittings and Brackets Should Be Used?

    A. We recommend using ball joints where possible to reduce side loading and extend strut life—use our free gas strut design service for tailored guidance.

  • Q 6. How Are Gas Struts Installed?

    A. Install gas struts piston-rod down in a single plane using ball joints, keep them in a relaxed state, tighten end fittings, and rotate the cylinder if alignment is needed.

  • Q 7. Fitting brackets

    A. Remove the retaining clip, secure the socket to the strut, press it onto the bracket ball until it clicks, then reinsert the clip to lock it in place.

  • Q 8. How Can Old Nitrogen Gas Struts Be Disposed?

    A. Depressurise safely with protective gear, drain the oil, and recycle the strut as metal—always consult Metrol before attempting disposal.
