After 25 + years of sterling service, during which period I increasingly resorted
to safety wiring the socket ends, they've now become too worn to be considered
serviceable. The struts themselves seem as strong as ever, so I'd be happy
simply to replace the plastic end sockets, however I'd be equally happy to replace
both complete strut assemblies.
Please would any of you kind persons direct me towards a quick stockist of these
items, or sell me a pair if you have those in new or nearly new condition.
Many thanks.

I did a quick search on Amazon for ball socket and found these
JINGLINGKJ 10MM Ball Socket M8 Male Screw Bolt M6 Female Thread Detachable Gas
Spring Metal Ball Joint Connector with Metal Wire End Fitting Bearing Joint 4pcs
(4PCS M6) https://amzn.eu/d/bAe2EZO
Not sure if they are suitable.

Jonathan,
What you require is from SGS, who make the Europa struts, shown on
https://www.sgs-engineering.com/catalog/product/view/id/3220?utm_source=klav
iyo&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Abandoned%20Cart%3A%20Email%20%231&_kx=MaQ
YMu0z98IUOPPH4KahZ6OgfbuSzC-2D4Hp49B9B2k%3D.PzKG3Q
The struts are now provided with their own wire lock. Because the cost of 2
struts was less than the 50 plus VAT needed for free delivery, I ordered a
pair of long nosed pliers at the same time.
SGS also recharge gas struts, with a quick return service, but my old 1996
struts did not have the wire locks, so I decided to buy the new ones this
summer.
Best regards,
Mike

Jonathan,
Europa purchased the original struts from Industrial Gas Supplies.
I replaced mine recently & got metal ends which I found much better.
Cheers

This is what Matronics Europa email list is all about. Within a couple of hours
I received a clutch of useful answers and so have placed my order for 2 struts
before going to bed.
Many thanks to Alan, Mike and James.
Good night,
Jonathan
