A high-quality gas strut from the renowned brand STABILUS, designed for the cab door. Its function is to smoothly assist in opening the door and, most importantly, to securely hold it in the open position, preventing it from closing unexpectedly. This is a key element for operator comfort and safety.
OEM quality product – a guarantee of a perfect fit and parameters identical to the original.

The list above is for reference. Before purchasing, we recommend verifying the dimensions on your machine.
Replacing gas struts requires supporting the door to prevent it from falling suddenly. Always use appropriate supports. Use safety glasses and gloves.
To ensure balanced operation and avoid stress on the hinges, gas struts should always be replaced in pairs. If your machine's door has two struts, replace both at the same time.
A gas strut is responsible for comfort and safety. A worn strut loses its gas pressure, which leads to a loss of lifting and holding force. This is not only annoying but also dangerous, as the door can fall unexpectedly.
A falling door is an injury risk and a constant annoyance.
The cost of replacing a strut is negligible compared to the comfort and safety you gain. Invest in your working comfort – order a new STABILUS strut and forget about the problem of a falling door.

STABILUS is a world leader and often an original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Their struts are characterized by the highest quality seals and precisely matched force (in Newtons), which guarantees long and repeatable performance. Cheaper replacements often lose gas and lifting force quickly.
2. Why does a gas strut lose its properties?A gas strut works thanks to high-pressure nitrogen sealed inside the cylinder. Over time, through microscopic leaks in the piston rod seal, the gas slowly escapes, leading to a drop in pressure and a loss of lifting force. This is a natural wear process.
3. Can I "regenerate" or "refill" an old strut?No. Gas struts are non-serviceable and non-repairable components. Due to the very high pressure inside, any attempt to open or drill into them is extremely dangerous. A worn strut should always be replaced with a new one.
