Additional Information

The ultimate shock absorbers for drivers who are looking for the ultimate performance for their UTV The Stage 5 shocks are designed around 3 key performance factors: high hydraulic flow, lightweight components and low-friction internal and moving parts. The perfectly balanced combination of those three factors allow a more precise tuning and much smoother damping action than anything else currently available for UTVs. Extreme riders can get better bump absorption and greater comfort while racers will significantly increase their speed and control. Arguably, the Stage 5 shocks are the most comfortable and best performing race-level shocks on the market today.

Helps increase and maintain speed over rough terrain and bumps
Reduce excessive weight transfers such as body roll, diving and squatting
Prevents bottoming-out upon harsh square-edged impacts and potholes
Provides increased traction in all conditions for maximum maneuverability
Allows precise fine-tuning of all aspects of the suspension, without the need to compromise

HIGH-SPEED COMPRESSION

Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed quickly. This adjustment controls the resistance upon landing from jumps, harsh or sudden square-edged impacts, riding at high speed over whoops, choppy terrain or tire tracks. To use, turn the black knob clockwise to increase damping resistance, therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance, therefore making the suspension softer.

LOW-SPEED COMPRESSION

Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed slowly. This adjustment controls body roll when cornering, rear-end squatting under hard acceleration, front-end diving when braking, riding over whoops at moderate speed, undulations and elevation changes in the terrain. To use, turn the red knob clockwise to increase damping resistance, therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance, therefore making the suspension softer.

REBOUND DAMPING

Controls the speed at which the shock absorber returns to its fully extended position after being compressed from an impact, keeping the wheels on the ground for maximum traction and reducing the bucking effect caused by the spring pressure pushing back after an impact. To use, turn the adjuster clockwise to slow down the rebound or turn counter-clockwise to speed up the rebound.

THREADED SPRING PRELOAD WITH ADJUSTABLE CROSSOVER LOCKRINGS

Lets the rider fine-tune the initial force applied on the springs and precisely balance the weight distribution across the front and rear wheels while setting up the ride height (ground or chassis clearance) and to lower or raise the vehicle to adapt to various situations or to suit your personal preference. To use, turn the preload adjustment ring clockwise (from top of the shock) to increase preload and raise the vehicle or turn counter-clockwise to reduce preload and lower the vehicle. The adjustable crossover lockrings provides precise adjustment of the transition from the dual-rate springs to the main spring, allowing fine tuning of the plush initial portion of the wheel travel vs. firmer spring platform deeper in the travel to resist bottoming

Elka Suspension Stage 5 UTV Shocks Technical Features

High-Flow Technology
Ultra-Lightwight Design
Low-Friction Internals
Dual-Flow Regulation
Hard-Anodized Parts
Triple Sealing System
Proprietary Oil Blend

Huge oil ports providing massive oil flow
Equivalent flow capacity upon compression and rebound stroke (1:1 ratio)
Low restriction of the oil flow = plush, predictable & consistent damping action
Less stress on internal parts = more durability and longer intervals between servicing

Components that are precision-machined from aeronautical grade billet aluminum
Sleek, lightweight reservoir with recessed cap to better protect the nitrogen valve
Ultra-light spring design with bigger outside diameter and less coil turns, providing important weight reduction while maintaining the reliability and intuitive ride-height adjustability of coil springs vs. air springs
Reduced weight and friction = less stiction and lower operating temperature = more resistance to fading
Crossover spacers design that reduces the accumulation of debris, therefore reducing wear on the body
Optional lightweight composite shock protectors to provide further protection against roost and other debris
Neutral look and colors that blends well with any quad model and livery

Hard-anodized aluminum internal floating piston for low operating temperature
Aluminum body that dramatically reduces overall weight and better dissipates heat
Hard-anodized to very tight tolerances to improve durability and further reduce friction
Special thread design on the aluminum body that provides more surface and less friction to making preload adjustments much easier

Allow the rider to adjust the shock to react differently to various terrain conditions without the need to compromise
Independent adjuster knobs for high-speed compression and low-speed compression
Separate circuits allowing smooth transition between high-speed and low-speed action
High-speed circuit acts like an internal relief valve to provide similar benefits to a bypass shock without the added complexity and “lock-out” effect

Provides a smooth surface that helps reduce internal friction inside the body
More durable finish than regular sulphuric anodization generally used on lower-end products
Hard chrome-plated shafts

Seal head design is composed of external dust wiper, high-pressure step-seal and o-ring
46mm shocks also feature a double dust wiper to further prevent debris for entering the shock
Low-friction o-ring material is certified resistant to greater temperature changes
High material memory that helps maintain sealing properties in harsh conditions
All sealing components are premium quality, carefully selected for their optimal balance of performance and durability

Fully synthetic proprietary blend
Ultra-low friction light viscosity grade
Ultra-resistant to high temperature
Extended usable life
