Technical Details and Construction

The StrongArm 4313 gas strut features a robust steel cylinder finished in black for corrosion resistance and longevity. The gas spring operates without an internal rebound spring, providing consistent force throughout its 9.05-inch stroke. Nylon ball socket ends at 16 degrees and 10 mm sizes ensure secure attachment points compatible with specific vehicle mounts. Rubber and Teflon materials are incorporated to reduce friction and wear, enhancing the strut's operational life under automotive conditions.

Compatible Vehicle Applications

This gas strut is designed for specific fitment rather than universal use. It is suitable for automotive models requiring a 15.83-inch compressed length and 24.88-inch extended length gas spring with a 90 Newton force rating. Commonly used in lift supports for hoods, trunks, or tailgates on vehicles where precise dimensions and mounting types are critical.

• Supports smooth opening and closing of hoods and tailgates
• Replaces worn or weak gas springs causing sagging or difficulty in lift
• Prevents sudden closure or slamming of automotive panels
• Maintains proper tension and positioning for vehicle components

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the StrongArm 4313 gas strut matches the original equipment specifications before installation. Verify the compressed and extended lengths, mounting end types, and force rating to confirm compatibility. Use appropriate tools to avoid damage to the nylon ball sockets during removal and installation. Proper alignment of the ball sockets is essential for smooth operation and longevity.
