Sugatsune S-ATJS lid stay is a back panel mounted, spring loaded stainless steel lid support rated at 78lbs in torque, built for lifting and holding lids or doors open between 10 and 80 degrees. The spring mechanism assists in lifting the door, so the lid starts to move open with less effort when you begin the motion from the closed position. Once open within the 10 to 80 degree range, the stay holds the lid in that open position, which keeps the work area accessible while you work under or around the lifted panel. The stay belongs to the Sugatsune S-ATJS series, giving installers a defined product family when matching or repeating hardware across multiple cabinets or workstations. The component is made of 430 stainless steel, providing a stainless construction that supports use in typical shop, work surface, or cabinet environments where a metal lid support is needed.
This back panel mounted spring loaded lid stay installs to the rear panel of the case, so mounting points are located at the back rather than the side or top rail. The balance adjustment feature allows installers to adjust the stay so it can handle a wider range of lids, affecting how quickly the spring engages and how the lid settles in its open angle. The stay can be used individually or in pairs, so layout can follow the lid width and torque demand up to the 78lbs in torque rating specified for this model. Because the stay does not work with concealed hinges, hinge selection focuses on non-concealed solutions that physically clear the stay during opening and closing. The spring mechanism assists lifting and then holds the door or lid within the 10 to 80 degree open range, creating repeatable open positions once the hardware is set.
This stainless steel lid stay is part of the Sugatsune S-ATJS series, positioning it as a defined solution within the Lid Supports and Stays product class for work surfaces and tables. The back panel mounted configuration suits cabinets or enclosures where the hardware is best anchored into the rear panel, such as storage compartments under lift-up lids or vertical doors that need support while partially open. Because the stay is a spring loaded design that assists in lifting, it fits applications where the lid weight approaches its 78lbs in torque rating and a mechanical boost is valuable for frequent access. The 10 to 80 degree holding range suits projects that call for a partially open lid position instead of fully vertical, keeping the panel from drifting while tools, materials, or components are handled beneath it. The 430 stainless steel construction supports use in shop or workspace cabinetry where a stainless lid support aligns with other stainless hardware components from Sugatsune America.
The 78lbs in torque rating defines how much lid resistance this Sugatsune S-ATJ01S stay is designed to handle, so panels within this range benefit from consistent opening support and stable holding behavior. The balance adjustment feature allows the installer to adapt the spring behavior to a wider range of lids, which means lighter lids can be tuned to avoid overly aggressive lift while heavier lids still gain useful assistance. When a project calls for a wider or heavier lid within the torque capacity, using the stay individually or in pairs provides layout options, letting the torque demand be shared across two stays for better balance along the width. The spring mechanism assists in lifting the door and then holds it open between 10 and 80 degrees, simplifying repeated access because the same motion produces the same open angle every time. Since the stay does not work with concealed hinges, the hardware selection narrows to hinge types that leave the back panel area clear, preventing interference and helping the lid stay operate through its full designed travel. The 430 stainless steel build supports a consistent feel to the motion over time within normal woodworking and shop environments.
The Sugatsune S-ATJ01S is a back panel mounted, spring loaded stainless steel lid stay that assists lifting and holds the lid open, used within the Lid Supports and Stays product class.
The spring mechanism assists in lifting the door so opening starts with less effort, then holds the lid in the 10 to 80 degree range, providing stable, repeatable open positions during use.
The 78lbs in torque rating indicates the torque capacity this lid stay is designed for, guiding its use on lids whose weight and geometry fall within that torque level.
The balance adjustment allows the stay to be tuned for a wider range of lids, so varying lid weights can open smoothly and remain held without excessive force or insufficient support.
The Sugatsune S-ATJS lid stay can be installed individually or in pairs, allowing load sharing across two stays when lid width or torque demand warrants it.
This lid stay does not work with concealed hinges, so hinge choice centers on non-concealed options that do not interfere with the stay along the back panel mounting area.
The Sugatsune S-ATJS lid stay provides a back panel mounted, spring assisted support with 78lbs in torque capacity, balance adjustment, and a 10 to 80 degree holding range, all in 430 stainless steel. For projects in the work surface, table, or cabinet category that require a controlled lift and dependable open position, this S-ATJ01S model offers a defined behavior pattern that repeats every cycle. When planning your next lid support layout with non-concealed hinges and a stainless hardware theme, this adjustable spring loaded lid stay from Sugatsune America is positioned to match those requirements.
