PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Shock Therapy
Suspension Fluid is formulated for maximum stability and high performance.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are formulated with
shear stable synthetic base stocks with high viscosity indices. The complete
additive package reduces foaming, aeration and wear, while seal conditioners are
added to keep seals soft and pliable. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids have
been tested and proven to be superior, balanced products recommended for a wide
range of temperatures and applications.
Controls Dampening and Rebound
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluids are formulated to make suspension
systems more predictable. The base stocks of AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension
Fluids have inherently high viscosity indices that effectively maintain their
viscosities, while their antifoam agents reduce aeration and foam.
Reduces Friction and Wear
The constant friction within a shock body decreases suspension
performance. AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid contains friction
modifiers to reduce the energy loss caused by friction, while antiwear agents are
added to protect shocks and forks from premature wear.

Recommendations
AMSOIL Shock
Therapy Suspension Fluids are recommended for front forks and shocks on
snowmobiles, motocross and cruiser motorcycles, ATVs and other racing and
recreational use vehicles, as well as cars and trucks that require their
suspension systems to perform in the most extreme conditions. It is recommended
the fluid be agitated before use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid is available
in two different viscosities.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Light #5
(STL) is recommended for, but not limited to, Showa,® Kayaba,® Bilstein,® RydeFX,®
Penske,® WP® forks, RACETECH® (US1) and Custom Axis® suspension systems. Use Shock
Therapy Light #5 where less dampening and quicker rebounds are desired. It is also the
preferred choice for winter use.
AMSOIL Shock Therapy Suspension Fluid Medium #10
(STM) is recommended for, but not limited to, Ohlin,® FOX,® RACETECH,® (US2), Koni,®
WP® shocks and Harley-Davidson® forks that recommend type “E” or “B” fork oil. Use
Shock Therapy Medium #10 where more dampening control and slower rebounds are
desired.
Product Availability
AMSOIL Shock
Therapy Suspension Fluids are available in quarts and 5-gallon pails.
