Sea-Dog Gas Filled Lift Spring, 10 Inch, 40 lb, Part Number 321424-1
The Sea-Dog Gas Filled Lift Spring (321424-1) is a 10 inch gas-filled support strut rated at 40 lbs, built to hold hatches, lids, and other hinged marine panels open safely and smoothly. Gas springs like this one use a sealed, pressurized gas charge inside the cylinder to provide consistent, controlled resistance as the panel is opened, preventing sudden drops or slams that can damage hardware or pinch fingers. This makes them a common upgrade or replacement for tired factory struts that no longer hold their charge.
Constructed with plastic components, this lift spring is sized for a 10 inch extended length, making it suited to smaller hatches, storage lids, and access panels where a compact strut is needed. It ships as a single unit and is manufactured in the United States. Because gas springs are matched to a specific extended length and lift force rating, confirming both the 10 inch length and 40 lb rating against your existing strut or hatch opening is the best way to ensure proper fit before ordering.
