The rubber bladder of the air spring depends on a crimp ring

The entire service life of the rubber sleeve bladder of the air spring suspension depends on a crimp ring

One of the most important parts of the air spring suspension strut is the crimp rings. Kaibintech’s crimp rings are made of seamless pipe and are galvanically processed to prevent rust to the clamps ring. Although the crimp rings are abundantly watered in rainy season, the roads are sometimes capable of corroding even galvanized parts. It is the matter of time.

The service life of the crimp ring is equal to the service life of the rubber bladder. When replacing the rubber sleeves, the crimp rings should be cut and replaced with new ones.

Kaibintech use clamps rings of excellent quality and thanks to the correct equipment and compliance with the crimping technology of the clamps rings, there has not been a single case of air leakage through the pressed joint.

On the original shock absorber struts used clamps rings similar to ours. But sometimes on third-party refurbished air spring, the welded clamps rings can be observed. Some manufacturers mask it with a milling method, and some do not hesitate to their careless work.

Why does some of air spring manufacturers using suture crimp rings?

The answer is simple. Because of the savings. And to the detriment of quality. In order to ensure air suspension strut with high quality, we use a quality seamless pipe. But, in the meanwhile, some of our followers take a sheet of metal, cut it into a strip on a guillotine machine, then roll it into a ring on a roll mill, and then weld a seam. It turns out the suture ring. Then this ring is covered with cheap zinc which will dislodge after several thousand kilometers of the car run. The most dangerous thing that can happen with such a suture crimp ring is the breaking of the clamps ring at the weld and the so-called “explosion” of the air balloon at the most inappropriate moment in the most inappropriate place even lead to a serious consequences.

Our clamps rings are suitable to restored air strut. Our crimp rings is no seam and is galvanically protected from corrosion.

Therefore, the entire service life of the rubber bladder of the air spring depends on a crimp ring.
