Fork Oil Viscosity at Elizabeth Goad blog

Fork Oil Viscosity. The centistoke rating is a viscosity coefficient and suspension engineers meticulously test their systems and then recommend a specific centistoke value. The thickness of fork oil is measured in viscosity, or how resistant the fluid is to flow. 180 rows but, due to the international sae standard being so loose, one oil company’s 5wt can be the same viscosity as another’s 7.5wt. So the higher the viscosity, the more dampening. The higher the viscosity, the slower the fork oil flows. I first need to convert the w oil viscosity (5w, 7w, 10w.) to the cst unit, which is standardized. Below you can find a equivalence suspension oil chart (both for motorcycle and bicycle) where you can easily choose the closest oil to the. There are several charts on the 'net showing the actual viscosity and the labeled weight. by the way, viscosity index is the. If you prefer quick rebounds, use a lighter fluid. You could think of the centistoke value as being an expression of your fork oil’s thermal stability or viscosity. Best rear shocks for mountain biking If you like slower rebounds, use a heavier fluid. The fluid’s viscosity (often thought of as its thickness) influences how fast or slow the oil flows through the shock valves. What makes a good fork oil? There is a convenient table here :
