A boot strut in a car is a component that plays a crucial role in supporting the weight of the boot or trunk lid while allowing it to be easily opened and closed. It is typically made of a combination of metal and rubber components for durability and flexibility. The boot strut is designed to provide a controlled and smooth lifting and lowering action for the boot, ensuring that it stays in an open position when needed and securely closed when not in use.

The primary function of a boot strut is to assist in the opening and closing of the boot or trunk lid. When the boot is closed, the boot strut compresses and stores energy, providing the necessary upward force to counteract the weight of the boot. When the boot is opened, the stored energy is released, causing the strut to extend, lifting the boot effortlessly. This makes it easier for the driver or passengers to access the boot and load or unload heavy items without the need for excessive physical effort. Additionally, the boot strut ensures that the boot remains open without the need for additional support, allowing users to have both hands free to carry out tasks within the boot.
