PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are formulated with shear stable
synthetic base stocks with high viscosity indices. The complete additive package
reduces foaming, aeration and wear, while seal conditioners are added to
keep seals soft and pliable. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids have
been tested and proven to be superior, balanced
products recommended for a wide range
of temperatures and applications.
Controls Dampening and Rebound
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are
formulated to make suspension systems more
predictable. The base stocks of AMSOIL Shock
Therapy Suspension Fluids have inherently high
viscosity indices that effectively maintain their
viscosities, while their antifoam agents reduce
aeration and foam.
Reduces Friction and Wear
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
antiwear agents are added to protect shocks and forks from premature wear.

Recommendations
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are recommended
for front forks and shocks on snowmobiles,
motocross and cruiser motorcycles, ATVs and other
racing and recreational use vehicles, as well as cars and
trucks that require their suspension systems to perform
in the most extreme conditions. It is recommended the
fluid be agitated before use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is available
in two different viscosities.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Light #5
(STL) is recommended for, but not limited to, Showa,®
Kayaba,® Bilstein,® RydeFX,® Penske,® WP® forks,
RACETECH® (US1) and Custom Axis® suspension systems.
Use Shock Therapy Light #5 where less dampening
and quicker rebounds are desired. It is also the
preferred choice for winter use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Medium
#10 (STM) is recommended for, but not limited to, Ohlin,®
FOX,® RACETECH,® (US2), Koni,® WP® shocks and
Harley-Davidson® forks that recommend type “E” or “B”
fork oil. Use Shock Therapy Medium #10 where more
dampening control and slower rebounds are desired.
