A PRT absorber is a type of shock absorber manufactured by Performance Ride Technology (PRT) for vehicles. These absorbers are engineered to meet or exceed Original Equipment (OE) standards and are designed to improve ride performance and durability. Key features include nitrogen gas charging to eliminate foaming, a twin-tube design for durability, vehicle-specific valving, and all-weather performance.
Key features of PRT absorbers
Nitrogen pressurized twin-tube design: This design helps keep the shocks cooler, reduces foaming and cavitation, and extends service life.
Application-Tuned Technology: The valving is specifically tuned for each vehicle model to ensure optimal performance.
Durability: They are constructed with sturdy materials like aluminum alloy pistons and high-quality oil seals, as well as micro-smooth chrome-plated piston rods and Teflon piston seals.
All-weather performance: The high-performance hydraulic oil is suitable for use in all weather conditions.
Improved ride and safety: Many shocks feature a 1-3/16” bore for improved ride quality and safety.
Wide application: Available for domestic and foreign passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks, including heavy-duty applications.
What a PRT absorber does
It replaces worn shock absorbers to restore original vehicle height.
It reduces vibrations and noise.
It optimizes suspension performance for a smoother and more stable ride.
