Specifications:
Gas Strut F1: 8KGF is a pneumatic compression spring with an extension force (F₁) rating of 8 kgf (kilogram-force), which equals 80 Newtons (N) or approximately 18 lbf (pound-force).
- Force (F₁): 8 kgf / 80 N / 18 lbf ( measured 5 mm before full extension)
- Load Capacity: Designed to support a dead weight of approximately 8 kg (17.6 lbs) when used as a single piston, or 16 kg (35 lbs) when used as a pair (orientation and leverage dependent).
- Standard Dimensions ( typical cabinet/furniture strut):
- Extended Length (center-to-center): ~260 mm to 268 mm
- Compressed Length: ~178 mm
- Cylinder / Rod Diameter: Commonly 15 mm x 8 mm or 18 mm x 8 mm
- Opening Angles: Supports standard stops at 75°, 90°, or 110° depending on the mounting position.
