290845 SACHS SHOCK ABSORBER

This SHOCK ABSORBER from SACHS (MPN: 290845) is a high-performance component designed for optimal shock absorption. It features a Telescopic Shock Absorber design with Top eye; Bottom eye mounting type, and operates within the Twin-Tube Shock Absorber System. With dimensions of 73.0 x 73.0 x 520.0 mm, it provides improved ride comfort and enhanced vehicle control. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Shock absorbers are velocity-sensitive, hydraulic dampers controlling unwanted spring oscillation in a vehicle’s suspension system. Typically implemented as a component of the strut assembly or rear suspension, they convert kinetic energy into thermal energy via piston movement through a pressurized fluid. Internal valving regulates damping force, tuned to specific vehicle load and driving conditions. Construction commonly utilizes a multi-stage piston design and robust cylinder body for durability and consistent performance. Performance characteristics are defined by compression and rebound damping rates, impacting ride control and handling.
