Durability

KONl dampers last extremely long. For 91 type trailer dampers, a lifetime of more than 500,000 kilometers is no exception. The combination of the adjustability and the availability of replacement bush kits extend their lifetime even more. That’s why KONl dampers have one of the lowest cost per mile.
Our engineers benefit from KONI’s many years of know-how and experience in supplying to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM). Also, our involvement in special projects such as rallies and other racing activities enhance the development of bus, truck & trailer dampers. For example, our truck shocks have challengedthe famous Dakar Rally.

KONl shock absorbers are specifically developed for any type of vehicle or driving condition. Be it military or construction vehicles, we deliver with precisely determined damping forces and characteristics. A KONI is never a simple copy of the original but a tailor made design. This way you get the best comfort and road-holding performance.
