What is AVCS (Auto Valve Control Stability)?

27th Dec 2022

What in the world is AVCS? You will see this in many of our GAB suspension products. More so on our SS Series and SS-R Series dampers.

AVCS stands for "Auto Valve Control Stability". This technology enables the shock absorbers firmness to adjust automatically as the damper feels all road conditions and driving style.

A specially designed, built-in with multilayers valve spring that senses and determine the damping force of the suspension.

How does AVCS work? 

By using a specially designed built-in multilayers valve spring, AVCS™ is capable to sense and determine the road conditions thus automatically tune the stiffness by reducing or increasing the damping force of the shock absorbers based on the road conditions and driving style. 

Specially designed shock absorber housing also plays an important role in keeping the multilayers valve spring in place and provides the most accurate reading for the constant adjusting damping force. 

This results to superior handling and maximum comfort on all road conditions. 

What are the differences between normal shock absorbers? 

A firm suspension works well on high speed driving and negotiating corners, offers maximum car handling but, sacrifices comfort. 

On the other hand, a soft suspension works well on bumpy road, potholes and uneven road but sacrifices handling.

With an AVCS™ technology equipped shock absorbers, you can now have both the comfort and handling.
