Mounting bracket for gas springs TB 27 inches, twin support, load 2×8 kg, TB

Bracket designed for mounting gas springs with a 27-inch length, the TB twin support bracket provides two secure attachment points for gas springs rated at 8 kg each. Manufactured by TB for applications that require controlled lifting or support of lids, hatches, panels and similar components, this bracket is intended to be used with compatible 27-inch gas springs and mounting hardware to ensure stable operation and load sharing across both supports.

Advantages

The TB twin support bracket offers a compact, robust mounting solution that distributes load between two gas springs for smoother and more controlled motion. Its design facilitates straightforward installation and reliable hold under the specified load of 2×8 kg, reducing stress on individual gas springs and attachment points. The bracket’s configuration helps maintain alignment of the connected components and supports repeated opening and closing cycles.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Supporting and controlling the lift of small lids and hatches
• Counterbalancing lightweight panels and access covers
• Retrofit mounting of 27-inch gas springs in furniture, cabinets or equipment enclosures
• Applications where two gas springs are used in parallel to share load

When it may not be suitable

This bracket is not suitable for loads exceeding the combined rated capacity (2×8 kg) or for gas springs of a length other than 27 inches unless confirmed compatible by the gas spring manufacturer. It is not intended for heavy-duty industrial lifting or safety-critical applications where higher load ratings and certified fittings are required.

Key specifications

• Compatible gas spring length: 27 inches
• Support type: twin (two attachment points)
• Rated load capacity: 2 × 8 kg (each support 8 kg)
• Application scope: lids, hatches, panels, access covers
• Typical mounting: fixed bracket for mechanical attachment to structure

How to use

Position the bracket on the structure where the gas springs will provide the required support, ensuring the bracket aligns with the pivot and mounting points of the gas springs. Secure the bracket with appropriate fasteners compatible with the mounting surface and material. Attach each 27-inch gas spring to the bracket following the gas spring manufacturer’s instructions, checking that the orientation and stroke direction are correct. After installation, operate the mechanism several times to verify smooth, balanced movement and secure fixation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm gas spring length is 27 inches and force rating is compatible with 8 kg per support
• Ensure mounting surface and fasteners can safely bear the combined load
• Check clearance, pivot points and stroke direction in the intended application
• Verify compatibility with the specific gas spring end fittings and ball sockets

Usage recommendations

Use this TB twin support bracket paired with matching 27-inch gas springs of the specified force, install with appropriate corrosion-resistant fasteners for the environment, and perform periodic checks of fasteners and connection points to maintain reliable operation.
