Gabriel® to Debut Advanced in FleetLine® and GasSLX® Shocks at HDAW 2016

Gabriel® (Ride Control, LLC), a leader in automotive ride control technology, has announced that it will be releasing its updated FleetLine® commercial truck, trailer, and bus shocks and GasSLX® shocks at the Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week 2016 conference, taking place January 25-28, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The updates, the company notes, were made after discussions with customers to determine real-world needs, and represent major innovations to keep the shocks’ damping characteristics consistent over the life of the shock through reduced misting, and reduced maintenance downtime through improved corrosion resistance.

FleetLine shocks are designed as a direct replacement for commercial OE shocks, and so are built to meet or exceed OE specifications and quality standards. They feature a valving rate that compensates for initial truck suspension softening to deliver top performance, as well as a pressurized piston ring that compensates for wear.

FleetLine shocks feature solid steel eye rings and end mounts, a durable, corrosion-resistant super-finished chromed piston rod, and a caged piston design for superior damping abilities along the entire spectrum of operation.

The GasSLX is a premium adjustable gas shock for long-life commercial vehicles that delivers customizable comfort and control in a high-performance, durable product. The GasSLX’s gas cell design creates a physical barrier between gas and the high-temperature fluid to allow it to adapt to diverse road conditions and payloads without fade or reduced damping.
