Pneumatic Tools / Accessories for trucks

Driver's cabin damper reduces the vibration loads, and ensures smooth travel of the truck. These damping elements absorb shocks and reduce roll, thus increasing the level of safety and comfort during the operation of a truck.

Types of driver's cabin dampers for trucks

By the design:

• Without additional elements. These are mainly used as components of vertical suspension for light-duty trucks.
• Coil spring. These are dampers fitted with steel springs. These items are more durable, but less efficient, compared to products of other types.
• Air spring. They are used in vehicles with pneumatic adjustable suspension. They ensure a high level of comfort even during long trips.

By the axle of installation, there are front and rear driver's cabin dampers. Besides, they may be installed in two and in four points. By the filling agent, the components are divided into oil and gas-oil dampers.

By the type of fastening:

• with eyes and rubber bushings;
• with a rod and fixing elements: bushes, washers, nuts, brackets, etc.

Malfunctions and their reasons

The service life for these components is not specified. They require regular maintenance service which should include checking the amount of the filling agent, the integrity of the housing, and reliability of fasteners.

Common failures of the components include deformation, leakage of the working fluid, mechanical damage of the housing, and piston jamming. The reasons are usually careless driving, excessive loading of the truck, and its operation in the off-road conditions. The defects may also be the result of hitting an obstacle or ingress of dirt and foreign objects inside the unit.

How to detect faults

Breakage may be indicated by shocks, noise, and vibration when driving on a rough road surface. Besides, the front part of the truck rolls at a high speed. In case of such symptoms, diagnose the unit and repair or replace faulty elements if necessary. The components should be replaced in pairs. Otherwise, rolling is possible.
