PAMAGOO 27" Gas Struts 45 lb 2-Pack — 27-inch Lift Support for Tonneau Cover & Truck Bed Undercover

PAMAGOO St270edi2-45 are a pair of 27-inch gas lift struts rated at 45 lbs each, designed to replace worn shock supports on tonneau covers, truck bed lids, hatches and similar panels.

These replacement gas springs restore smooth, controlled opening and hold-open support where original lift supports have lost pressure. Each strut measures 26.97 inches extended and 15.17 inches compressed, supplying roughly 200 N (45 lb) of force per unit. The kit includes two gas struts and a simple installation guide so most DIYers can swap them in minutes without specialty tools.

Will these replace my vehicle's worn tonneau cover shocks?

Yes — the St270edi2-45 struts are intended as direct-fit replacements for a range of OEM part numbers commonly used on 27" shocks. They match the extended and compressed lengths required for many truck bed covers and lift-assist applications.

• Extended length: 26.97 inches; compressed: 15.17 inches.
• Force: 45 lb (200 N) per strut, sold as a 2-pack.
• Compatible OEM references: ST270edi2-45, St270edi-45, ML2645, SL2645 and similar part numbers.

How difficult is installation and what tools do I need?

Installation is straightforward and designed for homeowners and hobby mechanics. In most cases you only need a screwdriver to remove retaining clips on the old shocks; the new PAMAGOO struts snap into place and secure with the same hardware.

• Estimated install time: about 5 minutes per strut.
• No special tools required — screwdriver for clip removal is usually sufficient.
• Do not compress the gas springs by hand before fitting; follow the guide included.

What applications are these gas springs suitable for?

These gas struts serve a variety of lid-and-panel duties where a 27-inch, 45 lb support is required. They work well for aftermarket tonneau covers, pickup bed undercovers, trailer doors, boat engine access panels and hatch covers that match the specified dimensions and force rating.

• Common uses: tonneau covers, truck undercover bed covers, trailer and hatch doors.
• Also used on boats for engine access and on cabinetry or equipment lids needing 45 lb hold support.
• Check vehicle or part manual to confirm length and force compatibility before purchase.

What should I know about durability and after-sales support?

PAMAGOO builds these struts to replace factory-worn units and expects them to perform reliably under normal use. The kit comes with an installation guide and PAMAGOO offers professional customer support plus 18 months of coverage after purchase to address fitment, function or replacement concerns.

• Package contents: two 27" gas struts (45 lb each) and one installation guide.
• Avoid manually compressing the springs before installation to prevent damage.
• PAMAGOO provides 18 months of customer support for troubleshooting or warranty help.

Who is this for? If you own a pickup, trailer, boat or equipment lid that originally used 27-inch lift supports and now struggles to open or stay open, this PAMAGOO St270edi2-45 2-pack is an affordable, do-it-yourself replacement. It’s aimed at vehicle owners, fleet maintainers and weekend mechanics who want a near-OEM spec swap that restores reliable lift assistance without specialized installation tools. Verify the compressed and extended lengths and the 45 lb force rating against your original parts list or service manual to ensure compatibility before ordering.
