Energy capacity 170,000 in-lbs/cycle
Stroke 8.00 inch

Strong and adjustable: Also in ACE's product range of units are adjustable heavy duty industrial shock absorbers. The models from the A1 1/2 to A3 range, which weigh between 16.6 lbs and 105.8 lbs (7.55 and 48 kg), are extremely robust, ready-to-install hydraulic machine components with impressively high energy absorption levels and a wide range of damping rates.

Their special aspect is the flexibility, as all the absorbers can be adjusted using a socket on the absorber base and be perfectly adapted to the application. The A models cover a range of effective weights from 0.66 lbs to 449,743 lbs. (0.3 to 204,000 kg) and can absorb up to 389,433 in-lbs. (44,000 Nm) energy.

For emergency use only applications and for continous use it is possible to exceed the published max. capacity ratings. In this case, please consult ACE.

Safety information

External materials in the surrounding area can attack the seal components and lead to a shorter service life. Please contact ACE for appropriate solution suggestions. Do not paint the shock absorbers due to heat emission.

On request

Special oils, nickel-plated, increased corrosion protection or other special options are available on request.
