Description
There’s nothing more frustrating than a door that slams shut every time you’re trying to climb in or won’t stay open when you’re carrying tools, feed, or just trying to get out quick during a rain shower. When door gas struts fail, you end up propping the door open with your knee while climbing in or fighting against a heavy door that wants to close at the worst possible moment. This 220N gas strut brings back the smooth, controlled door operation your tractor had when it was new.
What You’re Getting
- 220 Newton force rating that’s precisely calculated for your cab door’s weight and geometry – not too weak to hold it open, not too strong to damage hinges
- 505mm overall length with 205mm ram stroke gives you the exact door travel your tractor was designed for
- Ball socket ends that pop on with firm pressure make installation straightforward without special tools
- Nitrogen gas charge maintains consistent pressure across temperature extremes from cold morning starts to hot afternoon sun
- Weather-resistant construction handles the dust, moisture, and temperature swings that come with farm life
Built for Real Farm Work
This strut fits Ford tractors with AP (Advanced Profile) cabs – those popular 10 and 30 series models you see doing everything from feeding cattle to running implements. It also fits Deutz DX series tractors including the reliable DX4, DX6, DX7, and DX8 models, plus Agroprima and Agrostar tractors that have been workhorses on farms for decades. Your cab is your office, and whether you’re opening the door to clear dust during tillage work or just trying to keep it open while you grab tools, this strut works behind the scenes to make your day easier.
Made to Last
This gas strut uses quality seals and precision-manufactured components to maintain consistent pressure throughout its service life. The constant flexing, UV exposure, and temperature extremes all contribute to eventual strut failure, but this one’s built to handle those conditions year after year. Cold weather temporarily reduces strut pressure, which returns as temperature rises – that’s normal operation, not a defect.
Installation Notes
Always support the door before removing the old strut – they’re heavier than you think and can slam shut unexpectedly. Many operators replace struts in pairs to ensure balanced operation and prevent one door from closing differently than the other. If the ball socket ends seem loose, check the mounting studs for wear – worn studs let struts pop off during operation.
