The single-tube shock absorber dampens vertical stress and limits the suspension travel.
The pressurisation levels exceed 10 bar.
The main qualities of this product configuration are listed below:
- high dampening compared to its overall dimensions
- limited weight
- quick hydraulic response of the valves due to the high level of pressurisation
The single-tube shock absorber consists of a single tube and a chamber with high-pressure nitrogen.
Oil and gas are separated by a floating piston that prevents the formation of emulsion under working conditions and at high frequency, to allow for better stability in case of poor road conditions.
The shock absorber can be assembled on the vehicle in any position.
This results in greater design flexibility and it being used on a large number of automotive applications.
There is no cavitation phenomenon, and the result is greater stability in the wheel vertical shakings at high frequency.
Among the main characteristics, we can list greater heat dissipation, improved dampening stability under any working condition.
The more common applications are high-performing and Off-road cars.
