Vaico V30-2065

Vaico V30-2065 Gas Strut Overview

The Vaico V30-2065 is a black gas strut built with a 325 N eject force, 74 mm stroke, and 243 mm length for controlled lift and support in select Mercedes-Benz applications. Its compact 15 mm height and 15 mm width make it a precise OE-style replacement for service work where consistent opening and closing action matters.

VAICO product line components are developed for European vehicle repair needs, with attention to fit, dimensions, and application-specific performance. For Mercedes-Benz SL500, SL600, and SL320 service, this part number is a direct reference point for matching the correct gas strut specification.
