The Bilstein speciality is the high- pressure monotube shock absorber.
Where most shock bodies are cut from a piece of steel tubing, Bilstein uses a unique seamless extrusion process for greater strength and uniform 2mm thickness. The finished body is mated with a solid induction-hardened, chrome-plated and polished shaft, specially machined valving components and high quality seals.


BILSTEIN gas pressure technology
Over time, the mono-tube gas pressure technology developed by BILSTEIN has established itself as a standard in automotive construction. This technology involves keeping the oil in the absorber under pressure, which prevents it from foaming when temperatures and loads are increasing. As a result, full damping power is retained even when the system is placed under extreme stress, a feature that can be observed in the self-lowering piston.
BILSTEIN Twin-tube technology
The proven technology of a twin-tube absorber is applied in the vast majority of all vehicles. BILSTEIN‘s twin-tube absorbers, featuring “original equipment manufacturer” quality that has undergone rigorous testing, offer a marked improvement in driving characteristics with universal spare parts replaced in a timely and efficient manner.
