Hatch Lift Support

Hatch lift support, also known as rear hatch lift supports or hatch lift cylinders, are mechanical components used to support the weight of hatches or doors in various applications, such as automotive, marine, and aerospace.

Hatch lift supports typically consist of two gas-filled cylinders, each with a piston and rod assembly. The piston is attached to the hatch or door, while the rod is attached to the frame or body of the vehicle. When the hatch or door is opened, the rear hatch support struts for rear hatch inside the cylinders compresses, storing energy that is used to lift and hold the hatch or door in the open position. When the hatch or door is closed, the gas expands, releasing the stored energy and helping to close the hatch or door smoothly.

Hatch lift support struts are designed to be durable and long-lasting, but hatchback lift support can wear out over time and may need to be replaced. Signs that your gas charged lift support may need to be replaced include difficulty in opening or closing the hatch or door, the hatch or door not staying open, or visible damage or leaking of the cylinders. It is important to replace worn or damaged gas spring lift support promptly to ensure safe and reliable operation of the hatch or door.
