 Does anyone have the PN # for the gas strut on a IV for the nose gear?
Mcmaster or Aerocraft parts. Thanks Brad
 
 
[ timing is everything... had a customer call about this very thing earlier in the week... following is excerpted from my reply to him:  You can get them from McMaster Carr  (http://www.mcmaster.com/) and the part number is 9416K15.  Just put that number in their search window and the catalog page should come up.  They also make the same cylinder in stainless, that part number is 4175T5.  In either case, the strut is supposed to be 100-120 psi of force, personally I’d go with the higher number.  <Marv>    BTW, the threaded ends of the cylinders are 6mmx1mm thread, should fit your existing ends just fine.  They show replacement ends on the next page... get what works for you if you feel the need.]
