Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid #5 LightControllled Dampening and Rebound

AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is formulated to make suspension systems more predictable. Its base stocks have inherently high viscosity indices that effectively maintain viscosity, while its anti-foam 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 anti-wear agents are added to protect shocks and forks from premature wear.

Recommendations

AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is 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 suspension systems that 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® and WP® forks; and 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® and 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.

Product Availability

AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are available in quarts and 5-gallon pails.
