Have you ever experienced unstable driving and significant vibrations caused by uneven road surfaces while driving a vehicle? This kind of vibration not only reduces driving comfort, but also endangers driving safety. In order to solve this problem, dual tube shock absorbers have emerged. As an important supporting component of vehicles, they help filter out vibrations generated during driving, making driving smoother and more stable, and improving vehicle handling.

1、 The function of dual tube shock absorbers

A double tube shock absorber is a hydraulic device that absorbs and buffers the vibrations generated during vehicle operation through the flow of internal fluid. When the vehicle is driving on uneven roads, the piston in the shock absorber will move up and down, generating damping force to suppress vibration and keep the vehicle stable. The cylinder body and cylinder cover of the shock absorber are filled with hydraulic oil. When the piston moves, the hydraulic oil is forced to flow through the pores on the piston, thereby absorbing and buffering vibration.

2、 The function of dual tube shock absorbers

Improving driving comfort: Through the damping effect of shock absorbers, the vibration and impact generated during vehicle driving can be effectively filtered out, improving driving comfort and stability.

Enhanced handling performance: Double tube shock absorbers have a good suppression effect on lateral forces, which can improve the vehicle's handling performance.

Extending vehicle life: Shock absorbers can reduce the impact of body vibration on vehicle components, thereby extending the service life of the vehicle.

Improving driving safety: Shock absorbers can effectively reduce vehicle vibrations and bumps, allowing drivers to focus more on driving and improving driving safety.

3、 Selection and installation of double tube shock absorbers

When choosing a dual tube shock absorber, the following points need to be considered:

Damping force: The damping force of the shock absorber should be selected based on the weight of the vehicle and the usage situation. Generally speaking, vehicles with larger weights need to choose shock absorbers with greater damping force.

Spring stiffness: Spring stiffness is one of the important parameters of shock absorbers, which affects their effectiveness and service life. If the stiffness is too high, it will affect the absorption effect of the shock absorber; If the stiffness is too small, it will affect the stability of the shock absorber.

Installation position: When installing the shock absorber, it is necessary to choose the correct installation position to ensure that the shock absorber can fully play its role. Generally speaking, shock absorbers should be installed on the frame or subframe and connected to the suspension system.

In summary, dual tube shock absorbers are one of the indispensable supporting components for vehicles, playing an important role in improving driving comfort, handling performance, and safety. When selecting and installing shock absorbers, it is necessary to consider the actual situation comprehensively to ensure that they can fully play their role and safeguard our driving safety.
