PRT Shock Absorber Twin-Tube Design

PRT twin-tube shock absorbers, also called twin-tube dampers or struts and shocks, help control suspension movement for a smoother, more stable ride. They are built to improve handling, cornering stability and control, and to cut down on vibration.

Key Features:

• Twin-tube design: An inner working cylinder sits inside an outer tube. The space between the tubes serves as a fluid reservoir.
• Smooth piston travel: Twin-tube shocks usually run at lower gas pressure than mono-tube designs. This gives smooth piston rod movement and a comfortable ride.
• Controlled damping: Hydraulic fluid flows through valves in the piston and base valve. This controls both compression and rebound to keep the wheel in contact with the road.
• Replacement or upgrade: A good option for restoring ride quality and control when the original shocks are worn.

Worn shock absorbers can cause excess bounce, longer stopping distances, uneven tire wear and reduced handling confidence. Fitting a quality twin-tube shock absorber restores damping performance and ride comfort.
