Formulated for fade-free dampening and smooth rebounds in high-performance applications.
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.

Recommendations
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are recommended
for front forks and shocks on snowmobiles,
motocross and cruiser motorcycles, ATVs and other
racing and recreational use vehicles, as well as cars and
trucks that require their suspension systems to perform
in the most extreme conditions. It is recommended the
fluid be agitated before use.AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is available
in two different viscosities. AMSOIL
Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Light #5 (STL)
is recommended for, but not limited to, Showa,®
Kayaba,® Bilstein,® RydeFX,® Penske,® WP® forks,
RACETECH® (US1) and Custom Axis® suspension
systems. Use Shock Therapy Light #5 where less
dampening and quicker rebounds are desired.
It is also the preferred choice for winter
use.AMSOIL Shock
Therapy Suspension Fluid Medium #10 (STM)
is recommended for, but not limited to, Ohlin,®
FOX,® RACETECH,® (US2), Koni,® WP® shocks and
Harley-Davidson® forks that recommend type “E” or “B” fork
oil. Use Shock Therapy Medium #10 where more
dampening control and slower rebounds are desired.
