Gas Strut 81160-J1000 M40101017

Product Overview

This gas strut is a direct-fit replacement for Hyundai applications and carries the factory part number 81160-J1000. It is manufactured from a hardened steel or stainless rod running in a precision-ground pressure cylinder, sealed with a multi-lip oil seal and filled with high-pressure nitrogen, with zinc-plated or black-powder-coated end fittings and OE-pattern ball sockets or eyelet ends. The strut supports the tailgate, bonnet or boot lid through its full travel and holds it open at any position, so the panel is not held up by the customer's head or by a temporary prop.

Published OE reference: 81160-J1000.

Applications listed by the factory: Hyundai N LINE 2018.

Key Features

• ✓Cross-references OE number 81160-J1000 so the buyer can verify fitment before ordering
• ✓Nitrogen-charged cylinder gives a stable push-out force across the temperature range and through the whole stroke
• ✓Multi-lip oil seal and hard-chromed rod resist wear from dust, salt and thousands of open/close cycles
• ✓Zinc plating or black powder coating on the cylinder and fittings for corrosion resistance on exposed tailgates
• ✓OE-pattern ball sockets and eyelet ends — no adaptor or bracket needed
• ✓Force tested and leak checked individually before packing
• ✓Handed left/right and position-specific parts, matched to the OE part number rather than to the panel shape

Typical Applications

Match the OE number and then verify the extended centre-to-centre length, the stroke, the ball-socket diameter and the push-out force (N). A strut with the right end fittings but the wrong force will either not hold the panel open or push it open on its own. Struts are handed on most applications — left and right are different part numbers.
