Anyone know the part number for this gas strut? I can’t find any numbers on it. Thanks!

Just get a measurement of the strut closed and then open. You can then find it just using those dimensions.

Was that stock? That would be a handy thing for the trash access in our wet bar.

Yes, this is stock.

Any luck on a part number? I need one too.

I went with a 10” 20# strut. You can contact this seller and he will send you one if you don’t want to buy the two. He also has a stainless one also.

Hey Aero, did you install the strut and did it work? Thanks!

@YYZRC , I ended up returning it in exchange for a 30# or 40# (I can’t remember, I think 40#). The 20# worked, but felt if the boat was rocking and it was open, there was a chance it would close on its own. Next time I’m on the boat I’ll look and see if the strut is stamped. I’m surprised I didn’t update this thread.

Just getting around to looking at mine. It's a Spring Lift SL10-10. So 10#. I decided to go with a 20#. We'll see how it works.

I'm going to try a 30lb. Have a 20lb now but agreed with Aero, it is marginal at best.

@YYZRC , I looked at mine the other day and I guess I stayed with the 20# for some reason. It’s been fine with no issues.

I was telling @Spyderweb that it would be nice if they were soft close struts.

Howdy, Stranger!
