  • G109B Canopy Door Gas Struts


    Ethan Graham

    The compressed length of the strut, from ball center to ball center is 7 9/16", and the extended length is 11".

    The stroke is, 3 7/16".

    The standard rating is 250N (56 pounds)

     

    I believe the original fittings on the lower end of the strut are designed for "blowing" the canopy when bailing out with a parachute. A "ball" end fitting can be substituted which then allows use of a multitude of struts available on the internet.

    Prices of $15/strut can be found. One possible supplier is:
