Nitrogen, as a gas, is colorless, odorless, ......... "Azote" meaning without life is quite appropriate since we lost two fellow employees at GE Plastics who mistakingly entered a Nitrogen purged vessel. Up to that point, we confused 'inert' with 'safe'. I don't think anyone will be overcome with the N2 in a strut but don't think for a moment this is not a 'dangerous' gas.
