Attwood Marine

<h3>About Attwood Marine</h3><p><strong>Attwood Marine</strong> has been a cornerstone of the boating world for over a century. Founded with a commitment to quality engineering and practical design, Attwood grew from manufacturing underwater hardware and on-deck fittings into one of the most recognized names across every segment of the marine accessories market. Today, the brand operates as part of the Navico Group by Brunswick — a global family of market-leading marine companies — yet it has never lost the focused, boater-first philosophy that built its reputation.</p><p>What sets Attwood apart is their end-to-end approach: they design, manufacture, test, and distribute their own products rather than simply resourcing components from third parties. Every product in their catalog is tested against the highest U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), and CE standards, giving boaters and OEM boat builders alike the confidence that Attwood parts will perform when it matters most. Corrosion-resistant materials — including 304 and 316 stainless steel, chrome-plated zinc, and marine-grade synthetics — are used throughout the lineup to ensure durability in both freshwater and saltwater environments.</p><p>Attwood is also a leading OEM supplier, meaning you'll find their components pre-installed on boats straight from the factory. That pedigree speaks volumes: when boat manufacturers trust a brand to equip new vessels, that's a strong vote of confidence for the aftermarket buyer as well.</p><h3>Attwood Marine Product Categories</h3><p>Attwood's catalog spans a remarkably broad range of marine needs. On the docking and mooring side, their <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-fenders-201953">boat fenders</a> provide reliable hull protection against docks, pilings, and other vessels — an essential piece of gear for any boat owner. For on-water comfort and cockpit organization, Attwood's <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-pedestal-packages-202496">seat &amp; pedestal packages</a> deliver complete seating system solutions backed by years of ergonomic engineering, while their <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-clamp-mounts-202497">seat clamp mounts</a> and <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-clamp-mounts-200927">mounting hardware</a> make swapping or positioning seats quick and secure. Rounding out the seating ecosystem, Attwood's broad selection of <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seating-table-parts-accessories-202501">seating &amp; table parts and accessories</a> keeps every swivel, slide, and fitting performing at its best season after season.</p><p>Beyond seating and docking, Attwood is well known for its bilge and aerator pumps (including the iconic Sahara Mk2 and Tsunami series), navigation lighting, fuel systems, rod holders, and trailering accessories — making it a one-stop resource for outfitting or refreshing virtually any powerboat, fishing boat, or recreational vessel.</p><h3>Why Boaters Trust Attwood</h3><ul><li><strong>100+ years of marine expertise</strong> — a track record that few brands can match</li><li><strong>USCG, ABYC &amp; CE certified</strong> products built to rigorous safety and performance standards</li><li><strong>OEM-preferred supplier</strong> to leading boat manufacturers worldwide</li><li><strong>Corrosion-resistant construction</strong> engineered for saltwater and freshwater environments</li><li><strong>Full design-to-distribution control</strong> ensuring consistent quality across every product</li></ul>

Product Details

The Attwood Marine SL31401 is a heavy-duty gas spring designed for marine applications requiring controlled opening and closing of hatches, lids, and access panels. This gas strut features a 20-inch extended length with an 11.75-inch compressed length, providing approximately 8.25 inches of stroke travel with 40 pounds of lifting force.

Key Features:

  • 40 lb force rating for medium to heavy marine hatches and compartments
  • 20-inch extended length, 11.75-inch compressed length
  • Corrosion-resistant construction for marine environments
  • Controlled dampening for smooth, safe operation
  • Ball socket end fittings for easy installation
  • Engineered for reliable performance in saltwater conditions

Gas springs provide convenient hands-free support for boat hatches, engine covers, storage compartments, and seating. The controlled compression and extension prevent slamming and reduce strain on hinges and mounting hardware. Ideal replacement for worn or failed gas struts on boats, RVs, and marine equipment.
