Also known as hatch springs, these supports are commonly used on hatches and other top-opening lids. Raise the lid to extend the spring, which props the lid open—an internal cable keeps the spring from overextending. Press the center of the spring to release the hold and close the lid.

When used in pairs, these supports can hold lids weighing over 200 lbs., which is three times more than our other lid supports. Manually control these free-moving lid supports through their full range of motion. Raise the lid until the hold-open mechanism on the support is engaged; slightly lift it again to release the hold and close the lid.

Gradually slow your lid's motion to prevent it from slamming open. To open lids, lower them and the support will slowly and softly do the rest. Manually shut the lids and the supports will hold them in the closed position.

Providing constant resistance through the full range of motion, these supports hold lids open at any angle up to 70°. Simply raise or lower the lid and let go—friction keeps it in position.

Springs provide lifting assistance to raise and hold lids open—slightly lift the lid to get it started and the support will do the rest. Manually shut the lids and the supports will hold them in the closed position.

Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for use in damp environments.

With no gas to leak out and a corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel construction, these mechanical springs are built for long-term, maintenance-free use in wet environments.

These gas springs have threaded ends so you can use them with any combination of end fittings, studs, and mounting brackets.

Sized with short stroke lengths and miniature dimensions, these gas springs are for opening small lids and doors, like those on toolboxes and access panels.

Made from stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance in damp environments.

Made from stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance in damp environments. These gas springs have a bleed valve so you can release gas to permanently reduce the force to meet your requirements.

Protect material and equipment underneath heavy loads—these gas springs lock automatically when fully extended, ensuring they can't be closed until it's safe to do so.

Automatically locking when fully extended and made of 316 stainless steel to resist corrosion, these gas springs protect material and equipment underneath heavy loads in damp environments.

These brackets secure eyelet end fittings from both sides to provide a strong hold on gas springs that get bumped or jostled. Mount on any panel, lid, or door.
