When you’re trying to get some fresh air in the cab or need to see what’s happening behind your tractor, the last thing you want is a rear window that won’t stay open or slams shut on your fingers. A worn gas strut makes operating your rear window a wrestling match instead of the smooth, one-handed operation it should be. This 500mm gas strut with 150 Newton pressure rating gets your rear window working like it did when your tractor was new.
What You’re Getting
- Precise 150 Newton force rating calibrated specifically for your window weight
- 500mm length provides the exact geometry for smooth operation through the full range of motion
- Durable sealed construction handles daily use, weather extremes, and cab vibration
- Direct replacement that mounts to existing ball socket connections
Built for Real Farm Work
This strut fits the Case IH Maxxum series tractors that handle everything from loader work to field cultivation. Whether you’re running a 5120 for utility jobs around the farm or operating a 5250 for row crop work, proper rear window ventilation keeps you comfortable during long days. These tractors see hard use, and your cab components need to hold up to constant vibration, temperature swings, and the dust and debris that comes with agricultural work.
Made to Last
This gas strut uses high-grade seals and precision-manufactured components designed to maintain consistent pressure through years of agricultural use. The weather-resistant construction handles the demanding environment inside working tractor cabs while maintaining reliable performance season after season.
Installation Notes
Always support the window before removing the old strut – they’re heavier than you think and can slam shut unexpectedly. Check the Newton rating of your existing gas strut before ordering a replacement, as using a strut with incorrect force ratings can result in damage or glass breakage. The ball socket connections typically snap into place with firm pressure, and it’s worth checking both struts if one has failed.
