Gas lifts

Postby Pottercounty » Sun Apr 10, 2011 7:35 pm

Hi all, I want to install gas lifts on my galley hatch which weighs between 25-35 lbs. Is there a link, common formula, etc that I should look for.
Many Thanks
Tim

Thank You Proformance, I'll check those out. McMaster Carr is one the vendors we use regularly and a great company.
