Whitecap 15 in 60 lb 316 Stainless Gas Spring

This Whitecap stainless gas spring combines a 15 in extended length with a 60 lb force rating. It is made from 316 stainless steel. The rating and travel dimensions are central to choosing it for a hatch, lid, or other supported panel.

The spring compresses to 9-1/2 in. Its rod is 6 mm in diameter and the tube measures 15 mm. Whitecap identifies this as the 60 lb version, not a direct substitute for a lighter-rated spring.

Measure the old installation with the panel fully open and closed. Confirm that the force is appropriate for the lid and mounting geometry. Properly matched gas springs help a supported panel move through its designed travel. The spring should not bottom out before the hatch reaches its intended closed position.
