Proven Quality

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids' high-quality synthetic base stocks and high viscosity indices provide unparalleled shear stability. They effectively control friction and heat, reduce wear and scuffing and prevent fade more effective than conventional fluids can. AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids have been tested in a lab against the competition and are proven to be of the highest quality at a wide range of temperatures and applications.

Reduces Wear and Scuffing

Constant friction in a shock body decreases suspension performance while causing scuffing and wear on the inner walls. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids contain friction modifiers to reduce frictional energy loss and heat buildup. Anti-wear additives protect against premature scuffing and wear, while maintaining proper suspension absorption.

Effectively Controls Shock Fade and Dampening

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids' viscosity remains constant and foam and aeration are greatly reduced, significantly limiting shock fade and inconsistent dampening.

Superior Performance in High- and Low-Temperature Extremes

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids offer superior performance in both high- and low-temperature extremes. They are highly resistant to volatility, avoiding breakdown and resisting the buildup of sludge and deposits.

Seals Last Longer

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids include seal conditioners, which keep seals soft and pliable and extends their service life.

Applications and Recommendations

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are recommended for front forks and shocks in snowmobiles, motocross and cruiser motorcycles, ATVs and other racing and recreational vehicles and is available in light-weight and medium-weight grades:

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid, Light-Weight Grade is recommended for:

• Showa, Kayaba, Bilstein, RydeFX, Penske, WP forks, RACETECH (US1) and Custom Axis suspension systems

• Other applications that demand quick rebounds under extreme hot- and cold-weather applications

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid, Medium-Weight Grade is recommended for:

• Ohlin, FOX, RACETECH (US2), Koni, WP shocks and Harley-Davidson forks that recommend type "E" or "B" fork oils

• Other applications that require more dampening and slower rebounds.

Refer to the owner's manual for individual capacities, proper disassembly and further recommendations.

Note: Owner's manuals may refer to weights when recommending suspension oil. These weight numbers are arbitrary because no industry standard exists for classifying suspension oil. The numbers can range from 2.5 to 30, depending on the manufacturer. Below are the weight numbers that AMSOIL Shock Therapy correlates closest to:

• AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid, Light-Weight Grade is close to a 5 weight

• AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid, Medium-Weight Grade is close to a 10 weight

Compatibility

AMSOIL Synthetic Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids can be mixed together, based on individual requirements and applications, and they are compatible with most other suspension fluids.
