The Koni 8211 Twin Tube Double Adjustable Coilover Race Damper provides precise suspension control through adjustable damping and ride height. Its steel-bodied twin tube hydraulic design features independent bump and rebound adjustment, adjustable spring platforms, and spherical bearing mounts which allow you to fine tune vehicle handling and suspension movement.
Discover the key features of this race damper:
- Original Koni 8211 Race Damper Lineage: The 8211 series is Koni’s original coilover race damper design developed over 70 years ago and used across a wide range of motorsport series from saloon racing to Formula 1, and it has since been updated with modern materials and improved manufacturing techniques which help you benefit from proven suspension technology that delivers dependable damping performance in both classic race cars and modern builds.
- Twin Tube Hydraulic Damper Design: The steel-bodied twin tube hydraulic construction uses an internal working cylinder and outer reservoir to control oil flow during suspension movement, providing consistent damping performance which helps you maintain stable tyre contact with the road surface and achieve predictable handling response.
- Independent Bump and Rebound Adjustment: Separate adjusters for bump and rebound damping allow you to precisely alter compression and extension characteristics of the suspension, enabling you to fine tune chassis balance and suspension response which helps maintain consistent grip and control during demanding driving conditions.
- In-Situ Damping Adjustment Mechanism: External adjustment mechanisms allow bump and rebound settings to be changed while the damper remains installed on the vehicle, allowing you to quickly adapt suspension settings during testing or setup changes which helps reduce downtime and maintain efficient trackside adjustments.
- Adjustable Ride Height Spring Platforms: Threaded spring platforms allow accurate ride height adjustment while accepting both 2.25” and 2.50” coilover springs, giving you flexibility when selecting spring rates and ride heights which helps you set suspension geometry and vehicle balance precisely.
- Steel Damper Body Construction: A robust steel outer body provides structural strength and durability under repeated suspension loads, allowing the damper to maintain consistent operation through extended use which supports dependable suspension control.
- Corrosion Resistant Plated Finish: The steel body is plated to provide high levels of corrosion resistance which helps protect the damper from moisture and environmental exposure and supports long service life in demanding operating conditions.
- Loop Mounts with Spherical Bearings: Loop type mounting eyes incorporate spherical bearings that remove unwanted compliance within the mounting points, allowing the suspension to move freely without binding which improves suspension accuracy and maintains consistent damping performance.
- 100% Dyno Tested Dampers: Every damper undergoes dynamometer testing during manufacturing to verify damping performance and consistency which ensures the unit operates within specified parameters and provides dependable suspension control.
- Wide Range of Lengths and Configurations: Availability in multiple lengths and configurations allows you to select a damper suited to specific suspension layouts and vehicle setups which supports correct installation and effective suspension operation.
- Fully Rebuildable Damper Design: The internal components are serviceable and rebuildable which allows worn parts to be replaced and the damper returned to full working condition, supporting long-term use as part of your suspension setup.
- Application Specific Valving Options: Internal valving can be tailored to suit specific suspension requirements which allows damping characteristics to be configured for particular vehicle setups and helps achieve the handling balance you require.
Precise suspension tuning helps you maintain stable handling and consistent tyre contact under load. This coilover race damper allows you to adjust damping behaviour, ride height, and spring configuration to suit the demands placed on your suspension system. Adding these dampers to your car setup provides a dependable suspension component that supports controlled chassis behaviour and accurate suspension tuning.
