Pair of M8 Plastic Gas Strut End Fittings (10mm Ball Socket)

Corrosion-Resistant Hybrid Fitting with Heavy-Duty M8 Metal Thread Insert

When you need the ultimate blend of corrosion resistance and tensile strength, these hybrid end fittings are the professional choice. The robust plastic housing shields the component from moisture, salt, and rust, while the essential M8 Metal Thread Insert guarantees the thread connection will not fail, strip, or weaken under the loads typically placed on medium to heavy-duty gas struts.

Supplied as a pair, these fittings are engineered for secure, long-lasting performance in demanding environments like marine, off-road, and high-load caravan applications.

⭐ Key Features & Benefits (The Technical Details)

• Hybrid Material Design: Plastic housing prevents rust and corrosion; Metal insert secures the M8 thread for superior holding strength.

• Quantity: Supplied as a pair (2x fittings).
• Precision Sizing: Features the robust M8 thread and accepts standard 10mm ball pins.
• Marine & Outdoor Use: Ideal for environments where humidity and salt exposure are a concern.
