Shock Absorbers

Shock Absorbers — New & Used

Shock absorbers (dampers) control motion, impact, and vibration in moving equipment — helping slow, stop, or cushion loads at the end of stroke. They protect machines, fixtures, and components from shock while improving cycle consistency and reducing noise and wear.

At Surplus Select, we stock a range of new and used OEM shock absorbers and dampers in different stroke lengths, energy ratings, and mounting styles. Our surplus pricing helps machine builders, maintenance teams, and automation users source motion-control components affordably while extending equipment life and protecting critical parts.

Price Match — We match any authorized distributor on identical in-stock parts so you get surplus pricing with distributor reliability.

Trade-In Credit — Have quality new surplus items? Trade them in for store credit toward the parts you truly need.

Fast U.S. Shipping — Most orders ship same or next business day to help you complete projects promptly.

Find Your Shock Absorber Fast (Search-First)

Search by part number or model if you have it (e.g., OEM series and size).
No part number? Try specs like “adjustable shock absorber M12”, “compact shock 25 mm stroke”, or “miniature damper used”.
Add thread size, stroke length, energy rating, mounting style, or application (stop, decel, cushioning) to narrow results.
