Apexstone 80N/18lb 7 Inch/175mm Small Gas Strut
Gas Spring Using Scenes
These mini gas strut act as stay open door hinges in a safe and controlled manner.
Apexstone gas shock is multi-use. For example, lifting RV Cabinets and Upper Cabinet Doors In Camper, holding Ottoman Lid in the baby’s room, supporting the toolbox lid open for easy access to my gear, holding your apache 9800 rifle case lid, or popping up the SentrySafe lid to retrieve the Pistol.
1. Act as RV Cabinet Gas Struts
Installed Apexstone 80N/18lb 7 Inch lift supports in our RV cabinet doors or upper cabinet doors in the camper that swings up to open.
2. Replacement for a SentrySafe or Gun Safe gas strut
When 80N/18lb 7 Inch mini gas shocks act as sentry safe replacement parts, the safe lid pops open and the gun is readily accessible without the additional step.
How to Replace gas strut for gun safe: Just take off the top and bottom hardware from the original shock and screw it to the replacement shock. Easy to reattach and much cheaper than shock from SentrySafe.
Please note the difference between the 7-inch spring lift gas springs and the strut that came with the gun safe is the lid lift height which is a little inch or so less. It is not a problem at all. If you want to open the lid at a perfect angle, you may purchase Apexstone 8-inch sentry safe replacement strut. It should be more compatible with your needs for use.
Apexstone mini lift struts are small in size and low in force and are suitable for most light lids or panels. Anyway, we believe that more using scenes for Apexstone small gas strut will be explored by you soon…

Apexstone 80N/18lb 7 Inch/175mm Mini Gas Strut
You can even take the ends off the pivots by removing the metal retaining clips, and put them back on without damage.
My Sentry brand pistol safe was no longer popping open. I read some reviews and saw this might work. I went ahead and purchased. Sure enough, take the old gas shock off, remove the top and bottom parts (mine weren’t even tight at all so it was super easy) and take the new top and bottom off and put the old ones on. Put the shock back on and hooray! It works great again! I did add a small washer between the spring and the seal so that the spring doesn’t rub on the seal. Works awesome and I have a spare in case it does it again or maybe I’ll use it on another project. (The safe only needs 1 shock)
The door they lift is light, and opened infrequently. But so far so good.
Perfect fit and amount of power to hold our RV cabinet doors UP!! (7″ piston)
Almost perfect, with some mods it fit perfect on my pistol safe
Very easy install if replacing old ones! Once I figured out how they work — it was super simple and my cabinet doors stay up by themselves now — perfect!
We needed to replace the spring on our boat glove box and was extremely satisfied with this product. Its also great that it comes in a two pack in the event that something happens to one of them.
I like the function of the product. It solved a cupboard door problem in my little MyPod
Great quality and easy to install
Perfect for sentry safe! As you see in other reviews, it’s perfect for replacing the poor quality strut on your sentry safe.
