1 Answers
If there is no dedicated shock absorber oil, automotive power steering hydraulic fluid or automotive lifting hydraulic oil can be used as substitutes. The functions of shock absorber oil and the role of shock absorbers are introduced as follows: Function of shock absorber oil: The shock absorber contains shock absorber oil, which also includes a certain amount of lubricating oil components. Shock absorber oil is the hydraulic medium used in hydraulic systems that utilize liquid pressure energy. It plays roles in energy transmission, wear resistance, system lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, and cooling within the hydraulic system. Function of shock absorbers: Shock absorbers are wear-prone components during the use of a vehicle. The performance of the shock absorbers directly affects the smoothness of the vehicle's ride and the lifespan of other mechanical parts. Therefore, it is essential to keep the shock absorbers in good working condition.
