Recommended Lid Weight & Installation Guidance
Force Rating: 100N per strut (200N total per pair)
Recommended Lid Weight: Suitable for lids approximately 5–18kg when using a pair of struts.
(Actual performance depends on hinge position, lid material, and mounting geometry.)
Recommended Mounting Position:
- Install one strut on each side of the lid.
- Mount approximately 20–30% down from the hinge on the lid panel.
- Fix the lower bracket around 90–140mm below the top edge of the box frame (depending on internal depth).
- Ensure the strut is slightly compressed when fully closed to maintain correct preload tension.
⚠ If the lid is heavier than 18kg, a higher force rating may be required.
⚠ If the lid is lighter than 5kg, the struts may feel too strong and push the lid upward.
