VALERYD supplies axle shock absorbers and shock absorbers for trailers and caravans in several designs.

Axle shock absorbers are used to stabilise the trailer, reduce sway and provide a smoother ride when driving. In some European markets, fitted shock absorbers can be part of the requirements for a trailer or caravan to be approved for 100 km/h, together with other requirements on tyres, brakes, weight and vehicle design.

How to choose the right axle shock absorber

When choosing an axle shock absorber for a trailer or caravan, it is important to check the axle type, fixing, length, load and whether there are ready-made mounts for a shock absorber. Always compare with the existing shock absorber or the vehicle's specification before ordering.

How do I know the right size of axle shock absorber?

Check the shock absorber's length, fixing points and mounting angle. Also check the axle's design and whether the trailer has shock absorber mounts fitted. The correct measurements and the correct fixing are essential for the shock absorber to function correctly.

Shock absorbers

Axle shock absorbers for trailers help to dampen movements in the axle and wheel suspension. This can provide a more stable ride, reduce vibrations and contribute to better control when driving, especially when the trailer is loaded or driven longer distances.
