Sugatsune S-ATJ Series lid stay is a side wall mounted, spring loaded stainless steel lid stay designed to assist in lifting a door and hold it in the open position. The spring mechanism assists in lifting the door, which reduces the effort required when raising a lid or upward-opening panel. Once opened, the stay holds the door between 10 degrees and 80 degrees, so the lid remains reliably open within that range during access or work. The stay provides 78lbs in torque, giving the spring mechanism the strength to support lids sized within its torque capacity in typical applications. The balance adjustment allows use in a wider range of lids, so one model can be tuned to different lid weights within the product's functional range. Made of 430 stainless steel, the stay offers a stainless construction that supports use in environments where stainless steel hardware is preferred.
The side wall mounted configuration of the S-ATJ01 positions the stay on the cabinet or chest side, which creates a consistent reference surface for layout and fastening. Because the product is non-handed, it can be mounted on either the left or right side, so the same part number works across mirrored installations. The balance adjustment feature allows adjustment of the internal spring behavior, which helps tailor the lifting assistance across a wider range of lids within its torque specification. With 78lbs in torque, the stay offers a defined performance figure that can be matched to lid sizing decisions. The stated 10 degree to 80 degree open holding range provides a clear functional arc, so openings can be planned where the lid remains supported within that movement window.
The S-ATJ STAY,430SS,BAL ADJ,SIDE MNT,78LB identified as Manufacturer Part S-ATJ01 is a lid support within the Work Surface & Tables and Lift Systems, Lid Supports and Stays category, so it serves as a supporting stay for upward-moving lids or doors. As a side wall mounted stay, it fits layouts where the hardware attaches to a vertical wall beside the lid, which aligns well with chests, cabinets, or similar enclosures designed for side installation. The non-handed design allows the same S-ATJ01 stay to operate on either side, supporting symmetrical layouts or situations where obstructions dictate left or right placement. The 10 degree to 80 degree holding range defines the operating arc where the spring loaded mechanism can hold the lid open, so openings can be planned where access is needed inside that angle range. With 78lbs in torque, the stay offers a clearly defined torque value that guides how this model relates to lid weight within expected applications.
The balance adjustable spring mechanism in the S-ATJ Series lid stay allows the lifting assistance to be adjusted, which enables use in a wider range of lids by tuning the spring response to different lid weights within the stay's functional scope. This adjustment helps align the opening feel with project expectations, such as favoring easier lift or more controlled support. Installing the S-ATJ01 individually or in pairs provides options for dealing with different lid spans or structural needs, using one or two stays as the layout requires. The 430 stainless steel material listed in the description gives the stay a stainless construction, which supports selection where stainless steel components are desired for the overall hardware set. The note that it does not work with concealed hinges clarifies its role as a lid stay used with hinge arrangements other than concealed hinges, helping define when this type of support is suited to the hinge layout. The optional add on damper S-ATD referenced in the description signals that a separate damper can be paired in systems where damping is desired in addition to the spring loaded support.
The S-ATJ01 is a Sugatsune S-ATJ Series side wall mounted, balance adjustable, spring loaded stainless steel lid stay that assists in lifting a door and holds it open between 10 degrees and 80 degrees.
The S-ATJ01 uses a spring mechanism that assists in lifting the door, so the spring shares the lifting effort and supports smoother opening of the lid or upward-swinging panel.
The S-ATJ01 is rated at 78lbs in torque, providing a stated torque capacity that helps relate the stay's spring strength to the weight demands of typical lids.
The S-ATJ01 is side wall mounted, so it is designed to attach to the side wall of a cabinet, chest, or similar structure next to the lid.
The S-ATJ01 is non-handed, so it can be installed on either the left or right side, supporting a wide variety of cabinet or lid orientations.
The S-ATJ01 does not work with concealed hinges, so it is used with hinge arrangements other than concealed hinge systems in lid or door layouts.
The Sugatsune S-ATJ01 balance adjustable, spring loaded stainless steel lid stay offers side wall mounting, 78lbs in torque, and an open holding range from 10 degrees to 80 degrees, so it fits projects needing defined support behavior. Its balance adjustment broadens the range of lids it can serve within its torque capability, and the non-handed design suits either left or right side installation. For projects using hinge arrangements other than concealed hinges, this S-ATJ Series lid stay provides a clearly specified lid support option ready to be integrated into cabinet, chest, or work surface designs.
