The working cylinder in gas-filled monotube dampers is filled with oil and gas at a high pressure of around 25 to 30 bar. The SACHS monotube damper can be installed in any position, operating at a higher pressure than the twin-tube damper. This provides an advantage as it makes the lamellar valves in the piston highly responsive and prevents foaming or bubble formation in the hydraulic oil.
Twin-tube dampers consist of two oil-filled cavities; the working cavity in which the piston and piston rod move, and the compensating cavity. The compensating cavity is located between the working cylinder and the reservoir tube and is filled 2/3 with oil and 1/3 with air or gas. This results in the twin-tube damper having a shorter installation length than its monotube equivalent. This damper has been designed to efficiently adapt to the vehicle weight, axle design and suspension springs.
These shock absorbers damp vibrations in the suspension springs as well as the vehicle body. This shock absorber forms the end link between the suspension springs and the vehicle body; this makes it an extremely important component related to safety which reduces vibrations and reducing overall vehicle movement.
The continuous development of new vehicle generations is increasing vibration reduction. SACHS shock absorbers are a significant contribution to this continuous increase in vehicle vibration reduction with their constantly innovative developments.

The SACHS brand began in 1894 when toolmaker Ernst Sachs filed his first bicycle wheel hub patent application. One year later, he founded the “Precision Ball Bearing Production Plant” with a financer and merchant, Karl Fichtel. In 1911, Sachs took over the sole management of the company that had increased to around 2,600 employees. He converted the company to a corporation in 1923 and focused on the production of vehicle engines, clutches, and shocks and dampers. By 1995, SACHS was internationally well-known and represented globally. SACHS success continues to grow, maintaining their philosophy of securing a clear technological edge over competitors, regarding product quality and innovation, as well as exceeding customer service standards.
SACHS provides products for various fields of application covering almost all vehicle types. They have also provided and reached the European and Asian vehicle market. Ensuring high quality products, SACHS have provided more than 38 million Asian vehicles of various manufacturers high quality shocks and dampers.
SACHS has been heavily involved with the professional motorsports, being involved with more than 100 wins. They have also gained wide experience in the motorsport industry. As a result, all SACHS products have been developed with the consideration of professional feedback and expertise to design the most ideal and high-quality product suitable for all vehicles.
The long standing relationship between V8 Supercar driver Craig Lowndes and automotive component manufacturer SACHS has been strengthened, with the announcement of the three-time V8 Supercar Champion as the official ambassador for the brand in Australia.
Over the past nine seasons, Lowndes has relied exclusively on SACHS shock absorbers and clutches in his Triple 8 Race Engineering prepared V8 Supercars, with the combination proving to be incredibly successful.
These triumphs have seen demand grow, with over 90 percent of the 2013 V8 Supercar field fitted with SACHS products.
The partnership with Lowndes sees SACHS branding placed on the highly visible visor of his distinctive helmet, as well on his driving suit.
After winning over 40 races using SACHS products, including four Bathurst 1000s, for Lowndes the ambassadorship is a natural fit.
"Over the years I have had a lot of success with SACHS products on track, and have had a great relationship with the brand away from it," Lowndes said.
"Shock absorbers are one of the most crucial tuning devices on a V8 Supercar, ensuring maximum performance and prolonged tyre life.
"The quality of the SACHS motorsport products is mirrored by the road car applications.
"Not only is SACHS an OEM supplier to manufacturers worldwide, including local Australian-built vehicles, the SACHS range of replacement shock absorbers now covers 95 percent of cars in Australia."
The announcement of the new association was made today at the Australian Auto Aftermarket Expo, with ZF Services Australia Managing Director Chris Adcock stating that the alignment will further grow brand recognition in the Australian marketplace.
"Worldwide, SACHS has found great success in promoting our passenger vehicle range via excellence on the race track, from Formula 1 right through many of the world's leading championships," Mr Adcock said.
"For a decade this cutting edge know-how has resulted in Triple 8 Race Engineering being the dominant force in V8 Supercar competition.
"Craig is one of the most recognisable sports people in the country, and the fact that he has had so much success with SACHS products throughout his career, makes him the perfect spokesperson for the brand.
"We have been lucky enough to work closely with Craig at trade shows and events in recent years, including the Experience SACHS Days in 2012. We look forward to taking that relationship to a new level in 2013, and we wish Craig all the best for the season ahead."
