These extremely robust products wear at a very slow rate and can easily be re-calibrated and re-conditioned to new conditions; giving the dampers an extended service life.

Features:
  1. Large diameter piston rod, limiting the surface pressure due to side loads – the direct result is reduced friction and a long lifetime
  2. High quality silent blocks
  3. Low friction multiple seal system
  4. Special synthetic rings around the piston and the guide which ensure no metal to metal contact
  5. Noise-free valve systems
  6. Screwed dust cover; no welding required
  7. Internal or external dust bellows, protecting the piston rod against small abrasive particles

Operating Principle

Endurance Line dampers operate in accordance with the circulating oil principle.

This is when the oil is directed through the same valve systems in the guide, during both the compression and extension stroke.

On the extension stroke the non-return valve in the piston is closed and the oil above the piston is forced through the damping valves in the guide. At the same time, because of the increased volume below the piston, oil is forced through the non-return foot valve.

During the compression stroke the non-return foot valve is closed and because the piston is forced down in the cylinder, oil flows through the now open non-return valve in the piston. The oil displaced by the piston rod is forced through the damping valves.

Highlights

With the KONI circulating oil principle, these dampers guarantee unmatched symmetrical damping forces and provides for an excellent heat transfer between damper and surrounding air, allowing them to operate in the most extreme conditions.

The design is optimized to achieve the highest possible dependability while allowing the longest time between consecutive overhauls.
