  1. How Gas Charged Struts Work and How to Specify the Right Force

     

    Selecting the right gas strut involves more than choosing a force rating. Proper sizing requires evaluating panel weight, hinge placement, mounting geometry, stroke length, and environmental conditions to ensure smooth, controlled operation. Learn how gas struts work, avoid common selection mistakes, and identify the key factors that improve performance, safety, and long-term reliability.
