The gas strut extends from a compressed length of 13.98 inches to an extended length of 21.18 inches, offering a stroke length of 7.2 inches. The ends are designed for specific mounting: a nylon ball socket on one end and an off-set blade with a 0.525 inch diameter hole on the other, ensuring secure attachment points. Rubber and Teflon materials are incorporated to reduce friction and enhance longevity. This gas strut does not include an internal rebound spring.
Applications and Problem Solving
This gas strut is intended for use on Honda CRX vehicles where precise fitment and reliable support are required. It is commonly used in applications such as hatch supports, trunk lifts, or other automotive components requiring controlled motion and damping.
- Supports hatch or trunk lids to prevent sudden closing
- Replaces worn or weak gas struts causing improper lift or closure
- Eliminates rattling or loose components due to failed struts
- Restores smooth opening and closing action
- Prevents damage from uncontrolled lid movement
Installation Notes and Tips
Installation of the StrongArm 4611 gas strut requires matching the specific mounting ends to the vehicle’s attachment points.

Use appropriate tools to avoid damage to the nylon ball socket and rubber components during installation. Verify the orientation of the strut to ensure proper operation.
