For this system, oil is mainly utilized. Compared with other cushioning materials (rubber, spring, air etc.), they are compact and capable of repeatedly

When an object collides with a piston rod, the oil in the pressure chamber is compressed by a piston.
Stopper Nut Application Diagram The clearance between inner tube and piston is so small that compressed oil is forced out
of the orifices. At this point, the impact energy is converted into heat energy by dynamic
Shock Absorber Stroke Impact Object resistance.
The piston rod sinks into the shock absorber body so that the oil equal in
Shock Absorber volume to the piston moves into the accumulator. Piston Rod Piston Orifice
This mechanism provides an ideal shock absorbing action.
Various absorption characteristics can be obtained depending on the number
and size of orifices. m
Please note that when the wrong collision speed is selected, some abnormal
reaction may occur during collision or the impact energy may not be absorbed in
an ideal manner. Cap Accumulator Inner Tube Pressure Chamber, Oil

4. Stop Use Immediately in Case of Abnormalities Joints Floating
- If the piston rod does not return properly or if significant oil leakage is observed, internal damage may have occurred.
- Continued use may lead to equipment failure or injury.
5. Select with Sufficient Energy Margin P.17-014
- Over time, internal oil depletion and part wear can reduce energy absorption performance.
- Select a model with at least 20-40% more capacity than the maximum expected impact energy.
6. Avoid Angular and Off-Center Impacts O-Rings
Note: The stopper nut and mounting flange must be ordered together with the shock absorber, and cannot be ordered separately. - Impacts with misalignment greater than ±2.5° can cause rod bending or performance degradation.

- Use within the range of −5°C to 70°C.
- Operating outside this range may cause deterioration of seals or accumulators. P.17-015
8. Regular Inspection and Proper Disposal
- Inspect regularly to ensure proper performance. Replace if any abnormalities are found.
17-005 - Dispose of internal oil in accordance with local environmental regulations. 17-006
