AUCLIDIS 17" Gas Strut Set 45 lb (200N) — 17.13" Extended, 10mm Nylon Ball Sockets, Set of 2

AUCLIDIS 17 inch gas strut set (45lb/200N) — a direct-fit replacement lift support designed for camper shells, truck toppers, canopies and toolbox lids that use 10mm nylon ball sockets.

If your Leer camper shell, SnugTop topper or toolbox lid no longer stays open or the original struts have lost pressure, these AUCLIDIS gas shocks restore smooth, controlled lifting and secure hold. This pair replaces common OEM numbers and offers the same key dimensions and connection style so you can swap them in without modifying your vehicle. The package contains two 17" struts with 10mm nylon ball sockets at both ends and a 12-month replacement warranty backed by AUCLIDIS support.

How do these gas struts match my existing camper shell hardware?

These struts are built to match common OEM measurements and mounting styles used on many camper shells and truck toppers. Use the part numbers stamped on your old struts to confirm interchangeability, then compare lengths and socket sizes to ensure fit.

• Extended center-to-center length: 17.13 inches (nominal 17")
• Compressed center-to-center length: 10.75 inches
• Nylon ball socket diameter: 10mm at both ends (shaft and body)
• Force rating: 45 lb / 200 N suitable for medium-weight lids

Will these supports physically fit my Leer or SnugTop topper?

They are compatible with many Leer and SnugTop applications when dimensions and ball socket sizes match your original parts. Confirm compatibility by checking the OEM or interchange numbers printed on your existing struts.

• Interchangeable part references include C16-04270, C16-05209 and related numbers
• Designed for camper shell doors, topper caps, canopy windows and toolboxes
• Direct replacement of struts that use 10mm nylon ball mounts

What performance and durability can I expect from a 45lb (200N) strut?

A 45 lb (200 N) gas strut provides moderate lift force that balances opening assistance with steady support while preventing sudden drops. These are intended for lids and doors of moderate weight such as small camper windows, topper access panels, and lighter toolboxes.

• Stable lift and hold for medium-weight lids and hatches
• Smooth extension and compression thanks to sealed gas cylinder design
• Dual-pack ensures both sides of a hatch can be replaced simultaneously

What comes in the box and what support does AUCLIDIS offer?

The shipment includes two identical 17" gas struts ready to install using your existing 10mm ball mounts. AUCLIDIS provides a 12-month replacement guarantee and customer service to assist with fit questions or warranty claims.

• Contents: two AUCLIDIS 17.13" extended gas struts (set of 2)
• Mounting: fitted with 10mm nylon ball sockets for easy snap-on installation
• Support: 12-month replacement warranty and responsive customer service

Who is this for: These AUCLIDIS 17" 45 lb gas struts are intended for truck owners, RV and camper shell users, and anyone replacing worn lift supports on Leer or SnugTop toppers, canopy doors, and light-duty toolboxes. If your original strut lists a compatible interchange number or has the same center-to-center lengths and 10mm ball connectors, this set offers a straightforward, reliable replacement with manufacturer support.
