Shim

What Are Shims

Shims are thin, flat metal pieces used in shock absorbers. They help control how the suspension reacts to bumps and rough roads. By managing the flow of hydraulic fluid, shims make the ride smoother. This keeps your car stable and comfortable, even on uneven surfaces.
 
Shims do more than just improve comfort. They also make driving safer by helping the car handle sudden road changes. The thickness of a shim affects its flexibility, which changes how the damper works.

How Shim Stacks Work in Shock Absorbers

The role of gaskets in shock absorbers is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
 
Sealing function: The gasket can effectively prevent liquid or gas leakage, ensuring that the hydraulic oil or gas inside the shock absorber is maintained at an appropriate pressure and state, thereby improving the working efficiency of the shock absorber.
 
Shock Absorption Effect: By providing a buffer between the different components of the shock absorber, the gasket can help absorb and disperse the impact force, reduce vibration transmission, and thus improve the comfort and stability of the vehicle.
 
Prevent wear: The gasket can act as a protective layer to reduce direct contact between metal parts, reduce wear and corrosion, and extend the service life of the shock absorber.
 
Adjust the gap: In some cases, shims can be used to adjust the gap inside the shock absorber to ensure the fit accuracy between the components and thus optimize the performance of the shock absorber.
 
In conclusion, shims play a vital role in shock absorbers, ensuring their proper functioning and extended service life.
