<h3>About AP Products</h3><p><strong>AP Products</strong> has been a cornerstone of the recreational vehicle industry for over three decades. Founded in 1994 by Tom Manning Sr. — with roots going back to 1992 — the company began with a straightforward goal: offering a complementary line of packaged screws to support an existing supplier relationship. What started as a niche hardware offering has since grown into one of the most comprehensive RV replacement parts portfolios in North America.</p><p>Headquartered in Coldwater, Michigan, AP Products serves both the OEM and aftermarket segments of the RV world. Their catalog spans everything from adhesives and sealants to electrical components, braking systems, doors, locks, seals, and slide-out parts — making them a true one-stop source for RV dealers and enthusiasts alike. The company operates a group of 13 brands, focused on bringing high-quality, often American-made products to market and filling gaps that other suppliers have overlooked.</p><h3>A Broad Product Range Built Around RV Life</h3><p>One of AP Products' most recognized product segments is <a href="/2843-ap-body-trim-molding-46915">body trim molding</a>. Whether you&apos;re restoring a sun-faded travel trailer or refreshing a Class A motorhome, AP Products offers aluminum insert trim molding in a range of finishes — including Polar White, Colonial White, Black, and Mill Finish — designed to fit securely and deliver a clean, factory-like appearance. These trim solutions are made in the USA and backed by a limited warranty.</p><p>Lighting is another area where AP Products shines. Through their StarLights sub-brand and their broader electrical lineup, AP Products offers a wide array of <a href="/2843-ap-driving-light-bulb-16367">driving light bulbs</a> and RV-specific lighting solutions. From LED replacement bulbs engineered to fit standard RV fixtures to specialized omnidirectional tower bulbs, their lighting products are designed to deliver reliable performance and energy efficiency for life on the road.</p><p>Beyond trim and lighting, AP Products&apos; electrical category is expansive — covering adapters, circuit breakers, converters, power centers, energy management systems, awning accessories, and more. Their hardware line covers both exterior and interior needs, from compartment hardware and screw covers to cabinet hardware sized to fit travel trailers, fifth wheels, Class A and Class C motorhomes, and toy haulers.</p><h3>Trusted by RV Dealers and Owners Nationwide</h3><p>AP Products has built its reputation not just on product breadth, but on a genuine commitment to supporting the dealer network. The company has managed dozens of national retail and OEM accounts, and their parts are stocked widely to ensure availability when and where RV owners need them most.

Product Details

The AP 010-080 is a 10mm ball stud designed for secure mounting of gas springs and lift support struts in recreational vehicles and other applications. This precision-manufactured mounting component features a 5/16-18 thread with 1/2" thread length, providing reliable attachment points for gas props and lift supports.

Key Specifications:

  • 10mm ball diameter for standard gas spring end fittings
  • 5/16-18 thread size with 1/2" threaded shank length
  • Quality steel construction with durable finish
  • Sold individually (single piece)
  • Compatible with standard 10mm gas spring socket ends

Ball studs are essential hardware components that provide the pivoting connection point between gas springs and the surfaces they support. Commonly used in RV cabinet doors, storage compartments, truck caps, toolbox lids, and marine hatches, these studs allow gas springs to articulate smoothly while maintaining secure attachment. The threaded design allows for permanent installation into wood, metal, or composite surfaces.

Applications: Ideal for RV door and cabinet installations, truck bed covers, marine storage compartments, toolboxes, and anywhere gas spring lift supports are used. AP Products is a trusted manufacturer of RV and mobile home hardware components.
