Gas Strut – Smooth, Reliable Support for Car Boots and Bonnets

Perfect for car owners, mechanics, and automotive professionals across New Zealand who value reliability, precision, and effortless lifting

Open and close your car boot, bonnet, or tailgate with ease using the Gas Strut — a high-performance automotive component built for smooth motion, safety, and durability. Whether you’re replacing worn-out struts or upgrading your vehicle’s functionality, these gas-charged supports ensure effortless lifting and secure holding power every time.

Engineered to withstand New Zealand’s climate and road conditions, the Gas Strut delivers dependable operation, corrosion resistance, and long-term strength for vehicles of every make and model.

Description – Gas Strut

The Gas Strut is a precision-engineered, gas-filled support system designed to assist the lifting and controlled closing of car boots, hatches, and bonnets. It features a pressurised nitrogen chamber and oil-damped piston rod, creating a smooth, stable motion that eliminates sudden drops or jerky movement.

Each strut is built from high-grade steel or stainless steel and finished with an anti-corrosion coating, ensuring durability in New Zealand’s coastal and humid environments. The self-contained, maintenance-free design delivers consistent pressure for thousands of open-and-close cycles without performance loss.

Available for a wide range of vehicles — from sedans and SUVs to utes, vans, and trailers — the Gas Strut restores effortless lift and controlled motion to any automotive panel or lid. It’s compatible with OEM fittings and easy to install using standard tools.
