\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid #5 Light<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

A properly functioning suspension is vital to performance during a race or maneuvering around obstacles on the trail. For greatest effectiveness, riders need consistent suspension feel over a broad temperature range. Aggressive riding, however, can heat suspension fluid enough to cause viscosity loss, resulting in soft, inconsistent feel. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid resists viscosity loss over a broad temperature range for consistent, effective suspension feel. It reduces foaming, aeration and wear, while conditioning seals for maximum life.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Controlled Dampening and Rebound<\/strong><\/div>\n
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is formulated to make suspension systems more predictable. Its base oils have inherently high viscosity indices that effectively maintain viscosity, while its anti-foam agents reduce aeration and foam.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Reduces Friction and Wear<\/strong><\/div>\n
The constant friction within a shock body decreases suspension performance. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid contains friction modifiers to reduce the energy loss caused by friction, while anti-wear agents protect shocks and forks from premature wear.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Use Shock Therapy Light #5 and Medium #10 in applications that specify any of the following:<\/div>\n
\u2022 Denison* HF-O, HF-1, HF-2<\/div>\n
\u2022 Ford* M6C-32<\/div>\n
\u2022 Racine* Variable Vane Pump<\/div>\n

\u2022 BF Goodrich* 0152<\/div>\n
\u2022 DIN 51524 Part 2<\/div>\n
(except PM 500 Series)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Use AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Light #5 in suspension systems and forks where less dampening and quicker rebounds are desired, including those made by Showa,* Kayaba,* Bilstein,* RydeFX,* Penske,* WP,* RACETECH,* (US1) and Custom Axis.*<\/div>\n

Recommendations<\/strong><\/div>\n
Use AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid in front forks and shocks on snowmobiles, dirt bikes, motorcycles, ATVs and other racing and recreational-use vehicles, as well as cars and trucks that require suspension systems that perform in the most extreme conditions. Agitate the fluid before use. Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Light #5 is the preferred choice for winter use.<\/div>\n
