Shock absorbers: what are they used for? (Bilstein)
ORECA STORE offers you a wide choice of Bilstein threaded shock absorbers and combinations, for your everyday car or for motor sport. This component is indispensable for driving comfort, but also for safety reasons.
This is because the shock absorbers are part of the vehicle's suspension, just like the springs. Their role is to absorb the shocks suffered during journeys, generally by means of a piston sliding in an oil chamber. In this way, they play a vital role in ensuring that the tyres adhere to the ground. As a result, worn shock absorbers can degrade road handling, which can have a major impact on braking or cornering.
It is therefore recommended that the condition of this equipment be checked regularly, on average every 20,000 km. And it is generally advisable to replace them every 80,000 km on average. Note, moreover, that it is imperative to change them per wheel set, i.e. the two front shock absorbers together and the two at the rear together.
Advantages of the threaded handset
Within the family of shock absorbers, there is a rather special type: threaded combinations. These components are mainly aimed at motor racing, tuning or 4x4 enthusiasts. Their major differentiation lies in their adjustable appearance.
Bilstein threaded handsets are actually kits that include both shock absorbers and springs. In order to obtain the best possible road holding and the highest possible precision, multiple parameters can be adjusted: body height, spring hardness, shock absorber compression, etc.
If you wish to assemble these elements yourself, follow the steps described in our article on this subject. But don't forget that this operation requires a certain amount of expertise. If you have any doubts, don't hesitate to entrust your vehicle to a professional.
How to choose the right equipment for your vehicle?
As you can see, the ORECA STORE catalogue includes a wide variety of Bilstein products. How to find your way around? Let's start by deciphering a few technical terms...
First of all, the signs composed of the letter "B" and a number (B4, B6, B8...) correspond to the product range. For example, B4 shock absorbers are perfectly suited to historic vehicles. Conversely, B8s will be favoured by motor sport enthusiasts who are looking for better performance from their suspension. As for the B14 and B16, they are threaded combination ranges (see above).
In addition, you will also find "Group N" and "Group A". These terms refer to categories of vehicles in the regulations of the International Automobile Federation (FIA). Group N refers to mass-produced passenger cars, while group A refers to vehicles that have undergone some modifications.
Beyond these notions, it is important to pay attention to the compatibility of the parts. In our shop, we show you for each item which vehicle it can be fitted to. And you have the possibility to filter the search by car make to find the right equipment.
Bilstein, a reference brand for shock absorbers
Finally, to be assured of the best quality, trust Bilstein. Bilstein is a German brand specialising in damping and suspension technology. With 140 years of history, it is now recognised for its high performance and capacity for innovation.
Numerous car brands have thus chosen to call on Bilstein for their shock absorbers, including in original production: Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Lamborghini... And the company has also proven itself in motor sports, with participations in rallying, Formula 1, or the Le Mans 24 Hours.
