Horstman Linear Dampers
Our Linear Damper solutions provide a best value solution that is simple, rugged and backed by a hundred years of all-terrain, all-weather experience. From the same family we enable growth to computer controlled variable damping (Active Damping) and force-inserting (fully active damping) suspension as well as ride height management systems.
The heritage and quality of the General Kinetic Engineering Corp product range are fully retained and supported as part of Horstman Canada’s ongoing operations.
Horstman has developed traditional Linear Damper spring suspensions for vehicles ranging from light snowmobiles and All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) through small and medium-sized pick-up trucks and SUVs to large agricultural vehicles and wheeled and tracked armoured personnel carriers.
Our Linear Damper solutions provide an affordable means for customers to either increase the weight carried by the vehicle without degrading vehicle performance or to improve vehicle performance at the stock vehicle weight.
Our family of products allow growth to computer-controlled Active Damping and computer-controlled force-inserting Fully Active Damping suspension solutions as well as ride height management systems.
