Shock Absorber


Shock absorbers, also known as dampers, are critical elements of a vehicle's suspension system. Their primary function is to absorb and dampen the impact and vibrations generated by irregularities in the road surface, such as bumps, potholes, or uneven terrain.

Shock absorbers consist of a piston inside a cylinder filled with hydraulic fluid or gas. When the vehicle encounters a bump or other disturbance, the piston moves up and down within the cylinder, forcing the hydraulic fluid or gas through small passages, which dissipates the energy and dampens the movement of the suspension. This action helps maintain tire contact with the road surface, improving traction, stability, and control, while also enhancing passenger comfort and reducing wear on other suspension components.
