ARANA 10" 80 lb Gas Struts for Truck Tool Box & RV Cabinet, 2-Pack — 10mm Ball Ends, Weather‑Resistant

If your toolbox or cabinet lid sags, slams shut, or has lost its original lift power, this pair of ARANA gas struts restores controlled opening and reliable support. Each strut measures 10 inches extended (center-to-center), compresses to 6.46 inches, and is rated to support approximately 75–85 pounds (80 lb / 356 N). They’re built as direct replacements for common OEM numbers C16-15052 and C1615052 and fit many popular brands of truck tool boxes, RV compartments, and other hinged lids.

How do these gas struts improve everyday use of my truck tool box or RV cabinet?

These struts remove the strain of manual lifting and prevent lids from slamming closed, making access quicker and safer. Their smooth gas-damped action gives a steady lift and secure hold at any open angle, reducing wear on hinges and contents inside the compartment.

• Supports lids in the 75–85 lb range for stable open positioning
• Pre-attached 10mm ball ends for fast hookup to existing sockets
• Reliable damping reduces abrupt closures and protects cargo
• Designed to match OEM C16-15052 / C1615052 fitment

What makes ARANA’s gas struts durable enough for outdoor and marine use?
