Description

You know how frustrating it is when your hood won’t stay up while you’re checking fluids, cleaning the radiator, or doing routine maintenance. A failing bonnet gas strut leaves you juggling a hood prop or worse, risking a heavy hood coming down on your head. This replacement strut keeps your hood securely open so you can work safely under the bonnet without worrying about accidents.

What You’re Getting

330 Newton force rating provides exactly the right lifting power for your tractor’s hood weight
400mm length with proper extension designed specifically for Maxxum series geometry
Sealed construction keeps dirt and moisture out for reliable operation season after season
Ball socket end fittings that snap securely onto your existing mounting studs
Direct replacement that installs in minutes without modifications

Built for Daily Farm Work

This strut is engineered for Case IH Maxxum series tractors—the mid-size workhorses you’ll find running everything from planting and cultivation to hay operations and loader work. These tractors spend long days in dusty fields, and you need hood access that works reliably every single time you lift it.

Made to Last

Farm equipment takes constant vibration, weather exposure, and temperature swings from freezing mornings to hot afternoons. This strut handles all that punishment while maintaining consistent pressure and smooth operation. The sealed design keeps contaminants out so it won’t fail when you need it most.

Good to Know

Always support your hood securely before removing the old strut—these hoods are heavier than they look and can cause serious injury if they fall. The strut contains pressurized gas, so never attempt to repair it—always replace the complete unit. Check your existing strut’s Newton rating to confirm compatibility before ordering.
