The RRD 2.25” IFP shock's fluted aluminum body gives the advantages of weight reduction and cooling capacity without sacrificing strength. The fluting provides the structure required to ensure the aluminum cylinders are as strong as, if not stronger than their steel counterparts. The shock bodies are also treated with a military grade hard anodized coating to minimize wear and never corrode or oxidize. Double redundant sealing techniques are used at all critical seal surfaces. That means two shaft O-rings, two compression seals, two top cap O-rings with one hard shaft scraper. Two high quality DU bearings ensure the shaft is always concentric to the critical seals on the massive ¾” 17-4 PH Stainless, Hard Chrome Plated and Polished Shaft. A billet aluminum valve circuit with two stage valve stacks controls the dampening. The shock oil is formulated for fade-free dampening and smooth vehicle control. Its high viscosity index and shear stability controls shock fade. The wear band is made from solid Teflon to handle extreme temperatures without failure and minimizing shock body wear. The internal floating piston (IFP) separates the Argon from the shock oil so dampening duties are extremely consistent. All end caps and shock eyelets are made from billet 6061 Aluminum for a no compromise construction.
All these features combine to make the RRD 2.25” IFP Shock a fraction of the weight of the competitions 2.25” steel body counterparts and cool twice as fast for fade resistant performance. All RRD Shocks come with a 6 month Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Key Features:
- 2.25” O.D. Military Grade Hard Anodized Fluted Aluminum Shock Body
- Cooling Surface Area of a 2.5” Shock
- 3/4” 17-4 PH Stainless Steel, Hard Chrome Plated and Polished Shaft
- Billet Aluminum Valve Circuit and Components
- Dual DU Shaft Bearings and Double Redundant Sealing Methods
- Serviceable/Rebuildable/Revalveable
Notes:
- The standard valve circuit flow is based off 60/40 split similar to most other manufacturers.
- Bushings with a clevis mounting width of 1 5/8” and a ½” or 9/16” bore on top and bottom.
- Why Argon for charging our shocks? Argon has a molecular size that is almost 3 times that of Nitrogen so it does not weep as fast so recharging is not as frequently required, but yet Argon is still readily available at most commercial gas suppliers.
- Most all direct fit applications feature 2 Stage Valve Stacks.
