| Shock absorbers use the displacement of springs and variations in hydraulic pressure to move a piston rod up and down in order to absorb and alleviate excessive vibration in motor vehicles. They are indispensable in improving ride comfort and stability. POLYFLON PTFE is used in the parts which direct the sliding movement between the piston rod and the oil damper wall in shock absorbers. |
- Piston rod
Includes parts which are coated with POLYFLON PTFE Tough Coat Enamel.
- Strap busing and guide bushing
Includes metal alloy parts which are impregnated with POLYFLON PTFE Dispersion.
|
Effects |
| POLYFLON PTFE reduces the resistance between the walls and makes the absorption of vibration smoother through hydraulic control |
 |
Principle of shock absorber operation
The resistance of oil flowing through holes and orifices with valves is used as a damping force. |
