Product Overview
This matched pair of 1200N gas struts represents the highest force rating in the AUTORCE ottoman bed range. Developed for extra-large and heavily loaded bed systems, they provide the maximum lifting assistance needed to raise and hold substantial bed bases without strain or instability.
Typical supported load (pair):
Approximately 100–120 kg, based on the combined weight of the mattress and bed base.
Recommended Applications
- Extra-large and super king ottoman beds
- King-size storage beds with premium or high-density mattresses
- Heavily reinforced divan and platform bed frames
- Bed systems where previous lower-rated struts have been insufficient
These struts are purpose-built for maximum-load scenarios. They must be installed as a matched pair and rely on the bed frame for structural support.
Usage Guidance
- Always install gas struts as a matched pair
- The 1200N rating is the total combined output of both struts
- Lifting behaviour is affected by bracket position, hinge geometry and the angle of opening
🔧 Important Information
- Load capacity figures are provided as general guidance based on typical configurations
- Frame construction, fixing point location and mattress density all influence actual performance
- Ensure all mounting hardware and brackets are rated to handle the forces involved at this output level
Key Features
- Top-rated lifting force for the heaviest domestic ottoman bed systems
- Steady, controlled extension even under maximum load
- Keeps the bed base securely raised for safe and comfortable storage access
- Engineered for reinforced and extra-large bed frame constructions
🧮 Need Help Choosing the Right Force?
Matching the force rating to your specific bed setup is essential for safe operation. Before ordering, consider:
- The total weight of your mattress, including any topper
- The weight and material of the bed base
- The opening angle and hinge placement on your frame
A correctly rated pair of struts will open smoothly, hold firmly and close without excessive resistance.
