SKU: N/A

Adjustable gas struts, also known as variable force gas struts, can be used for applications where the required force is unknown. You can easily adjust the pressure to suit your application, making them ideal for new projects.

Available maximum force ratings

  • 700N
  • 1200N
  • 2400N

The force can be adjusted by releasing pressure, allowing you to find the correct force for your application. Pressure is released via the grub screw on the neck of the gas strut using a 2mm Allen key.

How to adjust your adjustable gas struts

  1. Insert the Allen key into the grub screw.
  2. Turn counterclockwise gently for a second at a time.
  3. Test the gas strut in your application.
  4. Repeat if needed until the desired pressure is reached.

How to measure the gas strut length

If replacing an existing strut, measure the original length from center-to-center of the end fittings. For new applications, measure the distance between mounting points.

How do I know if enough pressure is released?

Release pressure gradually and test after each adjustment. Do not over-release. If the application feels too stiff, release slightly more pressure. The strut is correctly adjusted when it operates smoothly.

What end fittings will I need?

If replacing an existing strut, select the same end fittings currently in use. For new applications, refer to the dimensions table below.
