Shock Damping Piston at Maya Reed blog

Shock Damping Piston. Adding or modifying valve shims will alter the shock's damping characteristics. Digressive pistons primarily produce digressive shock curves (duh), while linear pistons can produce digressive, linear and progressive shock curves. Shock absorbers are tested for design and control by a shock dynamometer. This controls piston and rod movement, which in turn controls how fast the springs move up and down. Most aftermarket shocks have two pistons: Shims on one stack will block oil flow through the piston, while the shims on the other stack allow oil to flow through. When printed in graph form. The vast majority of aftermarket dampers use either a digressive (bilstein) or linear rate (kw) pistons. The damper is tested at a single or multiple piston speeds with the damping forces noted. The standard, and most common piston used will provide a linear rate. The amount of resistance, or damping, a shock absorber develops depends on a few factors, like how fast the suspension moves, along with the number and size of the holes in the piston valve. Before we get into damping force calculations let’s examine the basic elements of a damper, compare the three basic types of damper construction and.
