Elasto Fluid Shock Absorbers

Elasto fluid shock absorber dampers use a high viscosity elastomer fluid instead of hydraulic oil as a dampening method. The hydrostatic compression of visco elastic fluids means that the part can be used as a shock absorber or alternatively as a spring with high reset force.


With the help of calculation software for shock absorbers you can easily find the best solution. Please note calculation link will open a new window in your browser.
