HIGH PERFORMANCE SHOCK FLUID
Mineral based shock fluid designed for use in high performance shocks. Shear
stable, high (300+) viscosity index formulation maintains viscosity and film
strength while reducing wear. Advanced additive system minimizes stiction and
reduces running friction while minimizing foaming and air entrainment. Ultra
clean formu-lation eliminates corrosion, conditions seals and extends
equipment life.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Advanced additive system reduces overall friction and decreases stiction.
- Shear stable, high viscosity index formula maintains film strength and reduces wear.
- Maintains optimal damping performance by minimizing foaming and air entrainment.
- Keeps internals clean while eliminating corrosion and conditioning seals.
