Product Description

FleetLine Heavy Duty Shock Absorber

Features & Benefits

• Welded endpoints create a dependable hold during angled suspension articulation
• Seal composition withstands long-term heating during multi-shift operation
• High-strength eye rings maintain stability under heavy trailer tongue weight
• Rod finish encourages smooth travel during rapid compression events

FleetLineTM Shocks – Commercial Truck and Trailer Shocks (85000 series) - Added durability makes the Fleetline™ 85000 series the standard heavy duty product for today’s low friction suspension. Designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment shock, FleetLine shock absorbers by Gabriel® provide a valving rate that compensates for initial truck suspension softening, providing performance that better matches the original ride. Built with original equipment quality components and 10 stage valving to ensure superior performance throughout the life of the shock, it also reduces wear and tear on other costly suspension and vehicle parts. And like all Gabriel shocks and struts, FleetLine shocks feature a super-finished chrome piston rod for superior corrosion resistance and a leak-proof piston seal which extends product life. Unique pressurized piston seal design reduces force-velocity variabilities and self compensates for wear. Cold formed, 360 degree arc-welded eye-ring and mounts and a 1 5/8” bore provide improved durability. A hydraulic rebound stop, where required, prevents shocks from topping out and suspensions from overextending

Gabriel Suspension Shock Absorber

The Gabriel Suspension Shock Absorber performs well on equipment exposed to harsh hauling cycles. It features an enlarged bore that helps deliver steadier movement control when heavy trailers or trucks travel through rough sites. The barrel shape increases internal fluid volume, helping reduce heat buildup during long operational stretches. Steel eye rings combined with a fully welded mounting structure help maintain secure attachment even as suspension angles shift under load. Additionally, the Gabriel 85000’s chrome-finished rod protects against rust formation while providing a smooth surface that supports predictable seal movement.
