PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension
Fluids are formulated with shear
stable synthetic base stocks with
high viscosity indices. The complete
additive package reduces foaming,
aeration and wear, while seal
conditioners are added to keep seals
soft and pliable. AMSOIL Shock
Therapy Suspension Fluids have been
tested and proven to be superior,
balanced products recommended for a
wide range of temperatures and
applications.
Controls
Dampening and Rebound
AMSOIL
Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are
formulated to make suspension
systems more predictable. The base
stocks of AMSOIL Shock Therapy
Suspension Fluids have inherently
high viscosity indices that
effectively maintain their
viscosities, while their antifoam
agents reduce aeration and foam.
Reduces
Friction and Wear
The
constant friction within a shock
body decreases suspension
performance. AMSOIL Shock Therapy
Suspension Fluid contains friction
modifiers to reduce the energy loss
caused by friction, while antiwear
agents are added to protect shocks
and forks from premature wear.

to
perform
in the
most
extreme
conditions.
It is
recommended
the
