Guden GGN44-040-X Gas Spring 40 Lb Threaded End

Product Description

The GUDEN GGN44-040-X is a nitrogen-charged gas spring designed to provide controlled, consistent extension force in industrial and mechanical applications. It delivers 40 pounds of force through a steel construction with a black nitride-coated piston, which resists corrosion and reduces friction during cycling. The rod diameter is 0.24 inches and the tube diameter is 0.59 inches, with an extended length of 12 inches and a compressed length of 8.5 inches, yielding a 3.5-inch stroke. Threaded M6 x 1.00 end fittings allow secure, repeatable mounting. Maintenance technicians, machine builders, and fabricators install this type of component in equipment covers, access panels, tooling fixtures, and ergonomic lift assists.

This gas spring is suited for light-duty to medium-duty applications where a compact, fixed-force lift or counterbalance is needed. Typical install scenarios include hinged enclosure lids, machine guards, automotive accessories, and custom fabricated assemblies where a consistent 3.5-inch stroke is appropriate. Its steel body and black nitride piston make it a practical choice for both indoor and sheltered outdoor environments subject to moderate wear and handling.

Key Features

• 40-pound extension force provided by sealed nitrogen gas charge
• Black nitride piston coating for corrosion resistance and reduced friction
• 3.5-inch stroke length with 12-inch extended length and 8.5-inch compressed length
• Threaded end fittings with M6 x 1.00 thread size for secure, tool-tightened attachment
• Steel body construction for durability in industrial and fabrication environments
• Compact tube diameter of 0.59 inches allows use in space-constrained assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or replacement gas spring for mechanical assemblies requiring a threaded-end, nitrogen-charged lift support with a 3.5-inch stroke and 40-pound force rating.

Installation Notes

Gas springs should be installed by qualified mechanical technicians or machine builders familiar with force-loaded components. Relieve any load from the assembly and secure the mechanism before removing an existing gas spring. Threaded end fittings must be fully engaged and tightened to the mounting hardware to prevent pull-out under load. Do not modify, drill, weld, or incinerate the gas spring body, as the internal nitrogen charge is pressurized.
