Michael: Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a quick look at this replacement gas strut for your boat hatches. This is going to replace a worn-out or damaged gas strut on your boat hatch so that you can once again more easily open up your hatch, and you don't have to worry about it slamming shut, potentially causing damage or causing injury.So this is going to provide about 60 pounds of compression force, so it is going to take quite a bit to close it. So it will do a good job for you. You can see we do have two ball sockets, one on each end.

Those are straight on. They're not angled at all, so they're going to fit right onto your 10-millimeter ball stud.Our overall measurement when measured from the center of one ball socket to the center of the other, we're looking at right at 7.5 inches when it's expanded like this, so should do a really good job for you. It's a nice durable construction. Heat-treated steel, so it's going to be very strong, will withstand a lot. It also has a corrosion-resistant coating, so it's not going to rust.

Even if you're using your boat out in saltwater and some saltwater we're to get on this, it won't corrode, so it will do a good job for you.Very easy to get installed, and I think this is going to be a great option for those of you who are wanting to replace that gas shock or strut on your compartment for your boat. This is a great option.So that's going to complete our look for today. And, again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.

As always, etrailer delivers a great customer experience. In this case, not only worth a fastest, but in this case they were the only supplier I could find for this particular product, which is usually European.

They always get me my stuff quickly, and I use their website websites videos constantly to purchase and install travel related items. They are welcome discovery in my life.

Still working great.Does not seem to be falling like other ones did.Do not know if because I went to a 10 lb over stock or just a better strut.But I will be replacing the other ones with these.

Glad to hear we could help you out and get you the right part :)

Comparing this to the usual steel gas strut is like day and night. Seems well made, and looks great. More important is my review if etrailer. When my order did not arrive, I sent them email. Shortly, I was notified that it was being tracked. When tracking did not find it, I emailed etrailer again. They expedited delivery of a replacement.

Great. Other shocks have no lift left. This marine shock in stainless keeps lifting.

by: Daniel 11/19/2025

perfect for my toolbox lid.

by: Kathy 07/03/2020

This gas strut for our boat hatch works perfectly. I received this faster than I thought I would and it was very well packaged. I have ordered things before from etrailer and have always had great results and service! I'm sure there will be other things I will need down the road for our boat...after all...you know what BOAT stands for don't you? It stands for "Bring Out Another Thousand"! :) When it comes to anything else I need....this IS the company I will order from.
Thank you etrailer for your service.

Still working GREAT. Very pleased with this product.

These worked well for my project. I was putting a concession stand style hatch in the basement wall that separates our play area from the living area. It took some research and a few tries to get them installed at the correct angle. I wanted the hatch to almost, but not quite touch the ceiling.

These struts worked phenomenal. I should have added them to our food trailer years ago. We retrofitted a 1972 Shasta Go Tag Along trailer and used real pine wood for a nice warm look. The side windows we cut into her were made of 2x4, plywood and pine wood. They were extremely heave and difficult to open. The struts were added and now they slowly open with by themselves. They are easy to close and only take one hand. Should have added them years ago!!

Exact match for a compartment door on a 2016 Unity Leisure Travel van. Speedy shipping as well.

2008 Grady White boat needed a new hatch lift. Boat manufacturers are not like automobile manufacturers, and many times the customer is on his own to find older parts. This was a perfect fit for the worn out gas strut. Even thought the force was 10 pounds lighter than the original part, it works fine. I was most pleased as the size and connectors fitted perfectly to effect a quick sure fix.

Replaced a hatch strut on a 2015 Stingray. Exact match and perfect fit.

A year on and it still functions as it should.

Worked well to replace cabin door hatch lid strut on a 2005 Hydra Sports 212 WA. Had to move the top mount back about 3/4" to allow the lid to close completely, but when the original part is no longer available, this is the way to go.

Needed to replace several boat hatch struts on a 2008 cruiser. etrailer had the right parts and the phone support to help me sort my older boat. Well done.

Did a bit of research on how to install these shocks via [online video] and ordered this product and installed in my rod lockers. Great products all around, was offered support but did not need it (got lucky). I need to fish more but so far so awesome.

by: Scott 06/28/2023 One Year Later

Great fit. Perfect replacement strut for a Chaparral SS rear bench seat engine cover/sunpad.
