shock absorbers do exactly what comes from their name: they absorb shocks and punches from the road surface . It is a simple concept, but different types of shock absorbers, ways of making them and why some work better than others can turn into a complex science that could be a course in college in understanding of shock absorbers. Fortunately, in this text we will start with the basics, and then delve into more detailed information about the shock absorbers in other articles of our blog.

One of the most common types of shock absorbers used in suspensions is called one -pipe or monotorobic. For the first time it was developed in 1954 by bilstein . The monotony shock absorber has one piston. On one side of the piston is hydraulic oil. On the other hand - gas under pressure (usually nitrogen). The hydraulic liquid slows down the movement of the tire and wheels up and down, extinguishes forces from shocks and disperses thermal energy. Pressure gas also helps to extinguish and absorb strokes.
Adjustable shock absorbers with a recessive tank span>
modernization of shock absorbers often covers the installation of adjustable single -pipe shock absorbers that have an external tank connected to the shock absorber body with a rubber hose. With the shock absorber disk, you can adjust the position of the piston, providing a smoother riding on the roads or improving off -road characteristics.
There is also a so -called shock absorber with a spring. The body of such shock absorber consists of points for a spiral spring to obtain a single shock absorber and spring, ie 2 in 1 . This makes the shock absorber more compact when the space can be a problem and also gives more opportunities to adjust the springs.
One of the most effective types of shock absorbers is the bypass (Bypass) shock absorber. This type is specifically designed for high -yield SUVs due to its exceptional ability to dissipate heat. Single shock absorbers are often the main shock absorbers for trophy trucks, rail cars and other cars designed for rapid riding.
When you make a SUV suspension lift and have the ability to upgrade the car suspension , pay attention to the selection of the shock absorber, because the quality of the ride and the performance of the suspension during the high load in "combat.
