Gas Spring Pneumatic Stay -12 kg/26 lb

Gas Springs deliver quiet and effortless movement, far surpassing traditional metal springs or friction stays. Designed for both down and up-moving lids, these stays are easy to install. Simply attach the mounting brackets to the case and lid, then snap the stay in place. Each pneumatic stay is rated by its closing force in pounds, so choosing the correct rating is essential—too much force can prevent the lid from closing properly. For lids wider than 36″, using two stays is recommended. Each unit includes screws, mounting plates for left or right installation, and installation instructions. Sold individually.
