Key Features

• Genuine OEM Gas Pressure Integrity — Factory-charged gas strut delivers the correct extension force and damping resistance specified for HIF690 heater applications.
• Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches original mounting points and stroke length for straightforward installation without reworking brackets or hardware.
• Broad HIF690 Series Coverage — Fits multiple HIF690 Flameless Air Heater configurations, including standard and Kubota Engine variants.
• Sustained Panel or Door Control — A functioning gas strut holds access panels securely in the open position during servicing; a worn strut can allow panels to drop unexpectedly, creating a hazard for the operator.
• Safe Access During Maintenance — Correct gas strut performance is directly tied to operator safety when accessing internal heater components — using a correctly rated OEM unit ensures the panel stays supported under load.

A gas strut is a sealed pneumatic spring that uses compressed gas to generate a controlled, consistent extension force. In flameless air heaters like the HIF690, gas struts are typically used to support access panels or covers, holding them open at a fixed position while the operator performs inspection or maintenance tasks. When a gas strut loses pressure or its seals deteriorate, it can no longer hold the panel in position — causing it to close under its own weight and creating a safety risk during servicing.
