FAQ

What is shock absorber oil used for?
Shock absorber oil is a specialized hydraulic fluid used inside dampers (shocks or struts) to control suspension movement, absorb impacts, and provide stability and ride comfort.

What weights (viscosities) of shock oil do you offer?
We carry a range of viscosities, including light, medium, and heavy-weight shock oils. Use manufacturer recommendations or fine-tune with different weights for your desired damping characteristics.

How do I know which shock oil is right for my vehicle or application?
Check your shock manufacturer’s or vehicle service manual for the recommended oil type and weight. For performance tuning, you can adjust oil weight to tailor suspension response and feel.

Can I use shock absorber oil in any type of shock?
Our oils are intended for use in rebuildable or serviceable shocks and struts on cars, motorcycles, ATVs, and off-road vehicles. Always confirm compatibility with non-rebuildable or sealed units before servicing.

How often should shock oil be replaced?
Interval depends on use and driving conditions. Performance vehicles, off-road, and motorcycles may require more frequent oil changes—inspect and refresh as recommended by your manufacturer or as performance degrades.

Is there a difference between shock oil and fork oil?
They are similar and sometimes interchangeable, but always check if your fork or shock calls for a specific formula—motorcycle fork oil and automotive shock oil may have different additives or viscosities.

What if my shock absorber oil arrives leaking or damaged?
Customer satisfaction is our priority. If your oil arrives leaking or damaged, contact us within 7 days for a quick replacement, exchange, or refund.
