Description
Nothing’s more frustrating than trying to hold up a heavy tractor hood with one hand while reaching into the engine compartment with the other. When your bonnet gas strut starts losing pressure, that 200+ pound hood becomes a wrestling match every time you need to check fluids, change filters, or do routine maintenance. This replacement strut puts the muscle back in your hood lift, so you can focus on the work instead of fighting with the bonnet.
What You’re Getting
- Strong 600 Newton force rating provides reliable lifting power for these heavy T7000 series bonnets
- 900mm overall length with proper stroke distance for full hood travel and secure hold-open position
- Heavy-duty sealed construction maintains consistent pressure through temperature swings and rough field conditions
- Ball joint end fittings that snap securely onto existing mounting points – no modifications needed
Built for Real Farm Work
Your New Holland T7000 series tractor is a serious workhorse, and this gas strut is engineered specifically for these machines. These bonnets are substantial pieces of steel and fiberglass that need proper support to stay safely open while you’re working underneath. Whether you’re doing daily checks on your T7030, changing hydraulic filters on your T7050, or troubleshooting an issue on your T7070, this strut keeps that heavy hood exactly where it should be.
Made to Last
Farm equipment takes punishment, and bonnet struts get their share of abuse from vibration, weather, and the occasional bump from a loader bucket. This strut uses quality seals and materials that maintain pressure even when temperatures drop or after thousands of open-close cycles. The 600N rating isn’t just adequate – it’s exactly what these tractors need for safe, reliable operation.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward once you get the hood supported safely. These struts use ball socket ends that pop onto the mounting studs – no bolts to mess with. Always work with the hood properly supported and never try to force a strut that’s binding. If your old strut has been weak for a while, check that the hood isn’t sagging or out of alignment before installing the new one.
