We innovate.

Lightweight materials and design for optimal weight reduction

Increased pressure to reduce fuel consumption of cars by decreasing the weight of their components has made lightweight developments one of the priorities for Monroe.

Our lightweight range features a small monotube and twin-tube for small car applications and a hollow rod for McPherson struts.

 

Longer lasting heavy duty applications to keep your truck on the road


Specially developed, premium quality heavy duty shock absorbers for buses and trucks ensuring safe handling, less tire wear and better protection of axle components.


Air pressure proportional damping improves comfort and handling


A pneumatic control, proportional with the load in the car, adjusts the damping force in a continuously variable way, improving the compromise between comfort and handling.



Displacement conscious damping proprietary technology


 

Shock
 
In some vehicles there is very little space for the rear suspension. As a result, vertical assembly of the shock absorber is not feasible and designers have been obliged to opt for a suspension system in which the shock absorber is mounted at an anglethat varies with the load. To deliver enough damping power in these conditions, Tenneco Automotive developed the DCD system with a variable diameter pressure tube.
