Description
A heavy tractor hood that won’t stay up when you need to check the engine or add oil can turn a simple maintenance task into a wrestling match. This gas strut gives your hood the proper lift support it needs, holding it securely open so you can work underneath without worrying about it slamming down when you least expect it.
What You’re Getting
- 750 Newton force rating provides the right amount of lift for smooth, controlled hood operation
- 620mm overall length with 250mm ram extension matches your tractor’s factory specifications
- Heavy-duty sealed construction keeps internal pressure consistent through temperature swings and weather
- Direct bolt-on replacement using existing mounting points—no modifications needed
- Corrosion-resistant finish handles the grease, dirt, and chemicals around the engine compartment
Built for Real Farm Work
This strut fits the John Deere 6M series utility tractors and 6R series row-crop machines that are the backbone of modern farming operations. Whether you’re running a 6130M on a dairy operation, using a 6155R for corn and soybeans, or pulling heavy tillage implements with a 6195M, these tractors see daily use in demanding conditions where reliable hood access makes maintenance faster and safer.
Made to Last
The 750 Newton rating is engineered specifically for these larger hoods—using a gas strut with a lower or higher newton rating can result in damage or breakage, so this strut delivers exactly the right amount of support. The sealed cylinder and quality seals maintain consistent pressure season after season, even when exposed to engine heat, hydraulic fluid, and field dust.
Good to Know
Installation takes about fifteen minutes with basic tools. Support the hood securely before removing the old strut, and have a helper if possible—these hoods are heavy. Check the Newton rating of your existing gas strut before ordering to make sure you’re getting the right replacement. Clean the mounting points before installing the new strut, and test the operation through the full range to ensure smooth hood movement.
