The AMSOIL Shock Therapy #5 Light Suspension Fluid (STLQT) is a race-grade synthetic fluid designed for high-performance suspension systems. It is engineered to provide fast rebound and consistent damping in lighter-duty applications or colder environments.
Key Performance Benefits
-
Fade-Free Performance: The advanced synthetic formula resists aeration and foaming, which are the primary causes of shock fade and inconsistent suspension feel during aggressive riding.
-
Reduced Friction & Stiction: Contains specialized friction modifiers that ensure smooth transitions and immediate response to small bumps, reducing the "stickiness" often felt in standard fluids.
-
Extreme Temperature Stability: With a high viscosity index of 209, this fluid maintains its protective film even under high-heat conditions while remaining fluid enough for immediate performance in sub-zero temperatures.
-
Seal & Component Protection: Formulated with seal conditioners to prevent drying and cracking, alongside anti-wear agents that extend the life of internal fork and shock components.

Popular Fitment & Compatibility
The Light #5 weight is the ideal choice for systems requiring a lower-viscosity fluid for quick response:
-
Shocks: Recommended for high-performance units from Ohlins, FOX, WP, and Penske.
-
Forks: A premium replacement for Showa, Kayaba (KYB), and Marzocchi forks requiring a light-weight oil.
-
Specialty Use: Often used as a direct replacement for Harley-Davidson Type "E" fork oil when a lighter, more responsive front-end feel is desired.
