Q: I am wondering what the weight capacity of the RHGIZ-A003 Hold open arm is ?
A: It would conclude it is not load tested as when the arm is in the hold open position it really wouldn't be holding much weight whatsoever you could probably have a 500 pound lid but the amount of weight it was asked to hold would probably be marginal at best because it's holding the door open in about the 80-degree position.
Q: True, except that this is for a ship and winds will be a factor
A: ahhh HA!
understood
The best I can do is ask the factory after explaining the application.
UPDATE:
I have received it official response from the factory and here it is for your review:
The parts themselves would not have any rating, but if they are going to be used with our hatch the entire unit would maintain our ratings.
