Mono Tube Damper Purpose Mono Tube Twin Tube Improvement of comfort and handling under various conditions Better ride & road-holding performance Feature Gas Chamber (Low pressure) Separate oil and gas chamber by free piston - Good fade performance Light weight with less components High gas-pressure charge (app. 15~30bar) Stable damping force at any install conditions (Upright, sideways, upside-down) Base shell Inner Tube Oil Application (Domestic) Free-floating Piston Base Shell Oil Gas Chamber (High Pressure) • Applicable for rear damper only
Shock absorber trend • Mechanism Comparison Twin Tube Mono Tube • Consists of an inner and • outer tube • : Gas charged in outer tube • (Gas filling pressure: 3 Bar) • Rebound damping force • produced by piston valve • Compression damping • force produced by body • valve • Consists of a single tube • : Oil and High pressure • gas chamber (30bar ) • separated by free-floating • piston • Free-floating piston • : Moves during rebound • and compression stroke • Rebound and compression • damping force controlled by piston valve Rebound / Compression Rebound / Compression Gas Chamber (Low Pressure) Piston Valve Piston Valve Single Tube Inner Tube Oil Outer Tube Free-Floating Piston Oil Gas Chamber (High Pressure) Body Valve
Benefits • Performance Comparison Twin Tube Mono Tube Damping force Damping force Damping lag Stroke Stroke
Application • Examples of Non-Korean Automobile Applications + most motorsport applications and sports cars • Domestic Vehicle Application Trend Hyundai/KIA automobiles introduced towards the end of 2010 will apply mono tube damper technology to their medium and compact range (rear suspension)
