Product Overview

The Stabilus 5B-1277PD is a gas spring with a 550 N force rating, built with a plastic socket connection at both ends for a direct replacement-style application. Its compact 8.307-inch compressed length and 11.890-inch extended length help match the original support geometry for the vehicle application.

Compatible with Kia Optima applications, this Stabilus gas spring is identified by part number 5B-1277PD and cross-references common aftermarket numbers used for the same application.

Key Features

  • 550 N force rating for controlled lift and support.
  • Plastic socket rod and tube connections.
  • 8 mm rod diameter and 19 mm tube diameter.
  • 8.307-inch compressed length and 11.890-inch extended length.

Detailed Description

Stabilus 5B-1277PD is a replacement gas spring specified for Kia Optima fitments from 2001-2005 and 2006 models with VIN 6 or 8. The measured body dimensions, rod size, and socket-style end connections are important for matching the original support hardware and travel range. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

For Kia Optima owners, the 5B-1277PD provides a direct-fit replacement path when the original gas spring has lost pressure or no longer holds position properly. The Stabilus part number 5B-1277PD is also useful when verifying interchange against common aftermarket references.

What It Is Used For

  • Weak or failing lift support that no longer holds position.
  • Slow or uneven opening and closing action.
  • Loss of gas pressure in the original support.
  • Incorrect travel length compared with the original part.
  • Socket connection wear that requires replacement.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, rod diameter, and socket connection style before ordering. Confirm the vehicle fitment details for the Kia Optima, including the 2006 VIN note, to ensure the correct application. Compare the original support to part number 5B-1277PD before installation.

Quality Assurance

Stabilus is a recognized OE supplier of gas springs and lift supports, and this replacement follows the dimensional and force specifications needed for the listed applications.
