EnduraPro are high-performance OE-shape shock
absorbers. Designed to use with the vehicle's original (OE) spring and upper
mount, their lower spring seat is shaped identical to the OE shock absorber. In
addition to replacing worn or leaking OE dampers, these products are excellent
to improve specs like ride quality or handling without changing your ride
height. You can also use them with TEIN lowering springs.
For strut-type suspensions a thickness increase improves the strength and
durability of the bracket attaching to the vehicle (steering knuckle) compared
to OE shock absorbers. This higher rigidity of the knuckle's support also
improves steering feel and makes the ride feel more stable.
The shell case, the key part of the shock absorber, is made of a high-strength
material with tensile strength around 150% of the OE shell case. Weight increase
is curbed by keeping the thickness of the cylinder wall the same. A bigger shell
case diameter expands its oil capacity, for improved durability as well as a
long-term stable damping force performance.
Exhibiting a stable viscosity in a broad temperature range, the high-performance
damper oil sustains smooth strokes and a reliable damping force under all kinds
of circumstances. It has excellent anti-foaming properties that protect it from
cavitation (bubble-forming), and is resistant to overheating, so that it works
noiselessly even on rough roads. The damper oil keeps up its superior
performance long-term, because it is also resistant to deterioration over time.
The shell case's bright TEIN-green powder paint coating excels in strength and
durability, while our coating technique is eco-friendly and without organic
solvents. After pre-treatment, TEIN's patented 2-Layer, 1-Bake powder coating
method with corrosion-proofing paint is used for superior durability and rust
protection.
