The Kiwi Camping Tuatara Pinnacle Gas Strut Supports are a critical safety accessory designed specifically for the Tuatara Pinnacle Hardshell Rooftop Tent.

These supports provide a secondary locking mechanism for the tent’s internal gas struts, ensuring the hardshell lid remains securely open even in high-wind conditions or when the roof is loaded with additional gear.

For campers who explore exposed coastal sites or high-country peaks, these supports offer essential peace of mind.

Kiwi Camping Tuatara Pinnacle Gas Strut Supports Features:

• Secondary Locking System: These supports function as a "fail-safe" for the tent's automatic gas struts. They slide over the strut shaft, physically preventing the lid from closing unexpectedly.
• High Wind Resistance: New Zealand’s weather is notoriously unpredictable. These supports ensure that sudden gusts of wind don't "catch" the hardshell lid and force it shut while you are inside.
• Increased Load Support: If you utilize the Pinnacle Roof Rack accessory to carry solar panels, recovery tracks, or extra gear on top of the hardshell, these supports provide the necessary structural reinforcement to hold the extra weight.
• Simple Slide-and-Lock Operation: Designed for rapid deployment, the supports can be engaged in seconds once the tent is open. They require no tools for installation or removal.
• Durable Construction: Made from corrosion-resistant materials to withstand salt spray and heavy rain, ensuring they don't seize or degrade over time.
• Compact Storage: When the tent is closed, the supports are small enough to be stored in the internal pockets or left on the struts (depending on the specific configuration) without interfering with the tent’s folding mechanism.
