Description
Tough Dog’s award-winning Foam Cell shock is our best-selling shock for all-round performance. Whether you head bush on the occasional weekend or for the majority of the year, Foam Cell shocks will handle your application.
The ‘Foam Cell’ that makes all the difference is a micro-cellular foam insert that helps to reduce the effects of shock fade drastically. This allows your shocks to perform better, for longer, even on the harshest of corrugations.
Cavitation and Aeration are the undoing of any shock absorber. As the shock is worked harder, the oil and gas in the outer chamber begin to mix and form bubbles, lowering the oil's viscosity. When this aerated oil passes through the valve, resistance is reduced, stopping the shock from performing correctly. The Foam Cell insert, with its trapped gas micro cells takes up the space in the shock normally taken up by air or nitrogen gas. This eliminates the possibility of bubbles forming, allowing the shock to get on with the job with an unparalleled resistance to shock fade.
