Design and Construction
The 100mm shock absorber features a compact mechanical construction designed to provide suspension and vibration-damping functionality in moving vehicles and robotic platforms. Its aluminium body provides a strong structure while keeping the component relatively lightweight.
The shock absorber is designed to be installed between the vehicle or robot chassis and the associated suspension or wheel assembly. Its mechanical movement helps absorb impacts generated when the vehicle travels over uneven surfaces or encounters sudden changes in terrain.
The 100mm overall size makes the shock absorber suitable for applications where a longer suspension component is required. It can be incorporated into custom suspension arrangements according to the dimensions and mounting requirements of the vehicle or robot.
The aluminium construction also makes the component suitable for repeated mechanical use in DIY robotics, RC vehicles, and experimental mechanical systems.

Working Principle
The shock absorber works by absorbing and damping mechanical movement and vibrations generated during vehicle or robot operation.
When an RC car or robotic vehicle travels over an uneven surface, the wheels and suspension experience sudden impacts and movement. The shock absorber compresses and extends as the suspension moves, helping reduce the amount of impact and vibration transferred directly to the chassis.
By controlling suspension movement, it helps maintain better contact between the wheels and the ground and can contribute to improved stability and smoother movement.
Multiple shock absorbers can be installed at different suspension points to create a complete suspension system. The actual damping performance depends on the vehicle weight, spring characteristics, mounting arrangement, terrain, and overall suspension design.
The shock absorber is a passive mechanical component and does not require electrical power.
