Adjusting the suspension setup: KW V5 Racing
Separate low and high-speed rebound and compression valves are available for perfect adjustment of the damper setup. The short-stroke valve reacts precisely and quickly for maximum feedback and performance. Thanks to numerous customisation options, an individual characteristic curve design is possible in a force range from 1,000 N to 10,000 N.

Solid piston displacement principle
The KW V5 Racing damper enables a direct response of the vehicle with minimal hysteresis thanks to the built-in solid piston displacement principle. If required, the modular damper can also be extended with an adjustable blow-off valve.
V5 Racing technology in detail

The KW V5 Racing ‘Formula Student’ is a damper specially developed for formula racing. With precise damping control and individual adjustment, it offers excellent driving stability and traction. Thanks to its compact design with integrated reservoir, the damper, which is based on the monotube damping principle, is the first choice for numerous student teams.
Value and quality
Technology
The KW V5 Racing is a high-performance damper based on a 4-way adjustable displacement principle. The McPherson application is an upsidedown version with a 40 mm cartridge and plain bearings. The advantage is the even lower gas pressure and the associated low gas extension force of the piston rod. With this displacement principle, we achieve maximum precision because a larger quantity of oil flows through the valves than with conventional systems. High damping forces of up to 10000N are possible. The housing is made of high-strength aluminum or galvanized steel.
Motorsport spring disc
Secured spring disc with a lock ring to prevent unintentional adjustment during racing. Aluminum spring plate with fine thread for precise adjustment of the wheel load and stepless adjustment of the ride height. The lower center of gravity improves the handling of the car. Optionally with shim height adjustment for setting the wheel load without adjusting the spring preload.

Setup
Every KW Racing suspension is individually tuned by our specialists based on years of experience and vehicle-related data. As a result, we not only achieve maximum performance but also less tire wear and better lap times.
Valve technology
Independently adjustable damping with 18 precise clicks in compression, low-speed, and high-speed rebound to find the right setup for every requirement. External reservoir as a piggyback directly on the shock or with a steelflex hose for particularly tight spaces.
