Product Overview

The AL‑KO Octagon Shock Absorber (Red) offers best-in-class damping for AL‑KO trailer or caravan chassis. Specifically tuned to trailer weight ranges, this red model provides stable, comfortable towing while reducing bounce and improving road and braking stability.

Key Features & Technical Specifications

Why It Stands Out

• Weight-Tuned Performance: Not a one-size-fits-all—optimised damping suits specific trailer weight ranges, unlike generic alternatives.

• Enhanced Safety: Reduces trailer oscillation (hopping), improves grip, ensures ground contact, and stabilizes braking response

• Retrofit Ready: Compatible with Euro Axles manufactured from 1994 onward. Installation is quick, tool-light, and includes integrated eyelet hardware.
