Shock Absorbers
Published On: 16th January, 2018
Shock absorbers are critical in ride comfort and vehicle control. Gabriel India is synonymous with Shock absorbers and has been the leading brand name in the Original Equipment Manufacturer and aftermarket for decades. Automotive shock absorbers isolate the passenger compartment from surface undulations. The outer coil springs absorb shocks induced by roads. Shock absorbers convert the kinetic energy of coil spring into heat energy by fluid friction. The mechanical restrictions are given in fluid flow passages to get the damping effect in Shock absorbers.
The different types of shock absorbers:
- • Twin tube
- • Mono tube
- • Cartridge
Twin-tube Shock absorbers are mainly used for automotive applications. Gabriel India manufactures Twin and Mono tube Shock absorbers and MacPherson Struts for Passenger Cars, SUVs, and MUVs.
