Intrax 1K2 shock absorber
The 1K2 is a real “high-end” shock absorber for demanding street- and competition use. The 1K2 is build using the finest materials. The housing is made from 7075 aluminum. This guarantees low weight, maximum strength and optimum cooling.
NOTE: It is a perfect replacement for the original Koni and WP shock absorbers.
The 1K2 damper is always chosen in the largest size possible for the most accurate damping control: normally a 46mm body with a 40mm piston and a 16mm piston rod. Mc. Pherson struts are normally converted from the standard 22mm piston rod to an upside-down system with a 40 or 45mm guidance tube for maximum stiffness and wheel guidance. This is especially important when the G-forces are higher than obtainable with the standard vehicle.
The 1K2 can optionally be equipped with the “Black Titan” coating on the guidance- and piston rod. This is a coating that cannot rust and is extreme hard and smooth. The friction is lowered with these piston rods, improving comfort, reducing oil temperatures, improving traction and extending life time under the severest conditions. The “Black Titan” is a luxury which – if you can afford it – is certainly recommended.
When there is sufficient room available, the 1K2 can be equipped with a “spring rate adjuster” which makes it possible to change the spring constant without removal of the struts/springs. See for more info the category products > spring rate adjuster,
Settings
Intrax take suspension serious. Different settings on the spring rates, shim stacks and damping pistons:
– Fast street / occasional trackday. An upgrade to the sportive side from the OEM equipment.
– Daily comfort, vibration and noise levels are just as important as handling.
– Trackday / bumpy race circuit / Nordschleife. A suspension to race on both smooth and bumpy circuits.
– It is possible to ride to- and from the circuits.
– Ride height is enough to drive on public roads. Laptimes and handling are more important than comfort levels.
– Optional: Full-race / rally. Stiff suspension, designed to work with slicks and roll cage fitted*
* Not useable on the street. Lap time optimized.
Adjustments, front shock absorber
A. Inbound dampening: turn clock wise to harden the dampening.
B. Rebound dampening: turn anti-clockwise to increase outbound dampening. (Slower out).
Setting in: + 15 clicks from open out – 25 clicks from closed.
Rebound first closed adjustment, then the change of the open adjustment setting.
Adjustments, rear shock absorber
A. Rebound dampening: turn anti-clockwise to increase outbound dampening. (Slower out).
Setting in: + 35 clicks from open out.
Rebound first closed adjustment, then the change of the open adjustment setting.
