carbon shocks

Only what I have seen on IG. A friend of mine ordered a set. I’ll be watching closely.

I was talking to them on IG. If I had more followers I think they would send me one to review. Whatever, I have about three or four more shocks to look at. Waiting for warm weather. Dozer does not like a cold garage.

Looking forward to hearing about those other shocks once it warms up. :smokin:

Who do we have to bother to get you a carbon shock to review? Im sure with the power of IBB we could probably make it happen. :laughing:

If my next shock reviews get more views, then I’ll worry about it. From what I’ve seen on Insta there are a few things that make no sense. But I think that about every shot in some ways.
 
I only hear second hand stories, but Carbon sounds like an absolute shit show. They were making shocks for another company, and one of my friends was flown out to try and fix them about a year ago. He said most of them were leaking on arrival, tolerances so loose he couldn't get them to seal at all, two identical shocks would have different lengths, stories went on and on.
 
There was some pretty in depth drama in the DTX group from guys who had tried his products and called him out and had some back and forth on his products.

I’d read some of the stuff there if you have FB

There is a lot more to that story but it really doesn't matter.

All I can say is go hop on the page and see what people have been saying for the last year.

Some good videos posted up in the last week and when a mod asked in a thread about peoples experiences there is nothing but positive reviews on Carbon. :)

Have a long ways to go yet but things are moving in the right direction.

We have a material breakdown on our website

Shock Shafts​

Carbon Shock Technologies prides itself on the quality of its shock shafts, which are designed and manufactured in the United States of America. Our shock shafts are crafted from cold-drawn, stress-relieved 1050 induction chromed rod, which is exclusively sourced from American suppliers. The specific grade utilized possesses a minimum yield PSI of 100,000 and a hardness rating of 68/70 Rockwell C.

To enhance the strength and durability of our shafts, we employ a machining process that involves inserting threads 1/4" deeper into the rod end to create a stress collar. This technique reduces the likelihood of shearing due to weaknesses caused by thread cutting.

Moreover, we ensure that our shaft tenons are machined smoothly to provide a rounded edge. This modification serves a dual purpose, reducing a 90-degree shear edge on valving by providing a smooth radius to bend, and minimizing seal damage during installation.

Orings are Buna 70 for 90% of applications and shaft wiper / Ucup and Oring seals are dysogrin. We use some viton in extreme racing application.
Dysogrin has a very good heat tolerance while retaining good colder weather resistance where viton fails and leaks.
