As technology and knowledge have expanded, The Brown Company has grown to produce bags for numerous commercial and recreational vehicle applications. ![icons\_0003\_Vector-Smart-Object](https://tbcfindlay.com/hubfs/icons_0003_Vector-Smart-Object.png) ##### What is a shock absorber bag? In a nutshell, the purpose of a shock absorber bag is to help control aeration of oil within a shock absorber. An air space was needed in the shock absorber reservoir to accommodate the expansion of the oil which improves many aspects of performance. ![icons\_0000\_Vector-Smart-Object](https://tbcfindlay.com/hubfs/icons_0000_Vector-Smart-Object.png) ##### How Does it Work? While in operation, oil in the reservoir of a vehicle becomes agitated as air and oil mix. The aerated oil is compressible and compression lag occurs when the oil moves from the reservoir into the working chamber. When this happens, you’ll typically notice a sudden “jerk” movement while riding in the vehicle. No compression lag, no rough ride. And that’s what our shock absorber bags are designed to do. ![icons\_0001\_Vector-Smart-Object](https://tbcfindlay.com/hubfs/icons_0001_Vector-Smart-Object.png) ##### The Nitty-Gritty of our Product As a vehicle moves, oil passes through the seal and evaporates. Simultaneously, a small amount of hydrocarbon vapor moves from the shock oil through the nylon film, causing the bag to expand – which compensates for the loss of oil. There have been countless attempts over the years to control aeration of oil inside the shock, but they don’t solve for compression lag. Our proprietary shock absorber bag provides a positive separation of gas and oil which directly addresses compression lag. ## Our Shock Absorber Bags We offer a variety of different sizes and gas types. From SF6 gas-filled to the green alternative of nitrogen-filled, our shock absorber bags are created to ensure we can serve multiple applications and industries.
