Adjusting Piston Valve AssemblyGabriel’s O-Ring piston seal adjusts as it wears to maintain a tight seal between the piston and pressure tube. This minimizes leak paths for a longer product life. |
Oil Seal with Dirt WiperGabriel integrates a dirt wiper above the oil seal to help keep road debris and grit from getting inside the seal and the shock for longer product life. |
Pressure Tube – Smoothed SeamGabriel’s metal forged D.O.M. (Drawn Over Mandrel) process removes weld seam imperfections from the tube surface. This smoother surface reduces friction and leads to longer product life. |
