Hydraulics

Modern Industries Hydraulic Shock Absorbers provide you with the ability to control motion where you need it most. Our line of self-contained hydraulic shock absorbers come with many years of field-proven design reliability and consistent operations. There’s no need for external attachments or power sources and the sleek design controls noise, vibration, impact and motion.

Rotary Shocks

Hydraulic Rotary Shock Absorbers consist of a cylindrical oil-filled body that’s attached to a chassis that has a lever action arm used to operate the shock. Our shocks are built to withstand a great deal of pressure and we offer a lifetime guarantee on their quality. The arms have several standard or common sizes available but we’re able to customize a solution for your needs if necessary.

Linear Shocks

A Linear Shock Absorber, also known as a Dashpot, is a shock with a damper that resists motion via viscous friction. The resulting force is equal to the velocity, but acts in the opposite direction, slowing the motion and absorbing energy. Our shocks are built to withstand a great deal of pressure and we offer a lifetime guarantee on their quality.

Bumper Shocks

A Bumper Shock Absorber is an oil-based shock that receives a force on one end and converts that kinetic energy into another form of energy, which is then dissipated. Our shocks are built to withstand a great deal of pressure and we offer a lifetime guarantee on their quality.
