The large-diameter piston features low-speed bleed ports which ensure a smooth and plush ride both on urban and metro roads through to rock crawling high-country tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IM2.5 is tuned perfectly for those who truly value all-day comfort in their 4x4 suspension solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCOOL OPERATOR\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigning an aluminium monotube shock absorber is beyond having a shock that delivers on the ‘cool factor’. Internal heat is a shock absorber’s kryptonite. Aluminium is proven to be up to 4x more efficient in managing heat than steel, which makes it the optimal material for heat dissipation in a shock absorber. Additionally, the monotube design optimised the cooling efficiency further by offering a greater surface area and respectively greater direct cooling to the internal hydraulic fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTRAIL-READY TOUGHNESS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IM2.5 is no city slicker. The monotube aluminium body is Type 2 hard anodised to ensure a robust finish to handle an off-road beating. Further the 3-4mm thick walls are cleverly mounted upside down to keep them further out of harm’s way, with a robust dirt shield is utilised on all rear shock absorbers to further help protect the 20mm hardened steel rod and renowned NOK seals of the IM2.5 monotube shock absorber.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIFP (INTERNAL FLOATING PISTON) DESIGN\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IM2.5 was designed with comfort and robustness in mind; and while the temptation was there for a remote reservoir, the inline design of a billet aluminium internal floating piston matched with high-pressure (200PSI) nitrogen gas offers an unmatched simplicity and robustness for off-road tourers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTOP-LEVEL SPECS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtruded 6061-T6 Aircraft grade aluminium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.5”, 3-4mm thick body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 2 hard anodised exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC Billet aluminium pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20mm hardened steel rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobust dirt shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle-specific tuning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ironman 4x4 International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42258152259702,"sku":"72-057-743","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/2025\/5094\/files\/4x4x-Monotube-Shock-Absorber-IM25-3_9556526d-d942-47c1-8c81-bebc04cd4f7e.jpg?v=1765776786","url":"https:\/\/ironman4x4.global\/products\/im-2-5-shock-absorber-72057743","provider":"Ironman 4x4 International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
