Motorcycle Shock Bladder Cap Retaining Clips

Teknik Bladder Cap Retaining Clips

Bladder Cap Retaining Clips

Motorbikes with piggyback-style shock absorbers usually have a rubber bladder reservoir separating oil & nitrogen gas. This heavy duty little balloon leaks less than the separate Internal Floating Piston seals, so most OEM rear dampers use them in their piggy back chamber - learn more about shock layouts. The bladders use sealing alloy end caps, and we stock bladder & cap upgrades such as high capacity kits, shorter angled caps, bladder conversion kits for IFP shocks and options in anodised colours.

Prevent bladder cap ejection and retain gas charge

  • Wire snap rings act as a retainer clip to stop the bladder cap being pushed out of the shock body
  • Replace clips when servicing seals, o-rings or rebuilding the damper
  • Works with caps that use rubber bungs or schrader valves for regassing
  • Helps maintain nitrogen charge for consistent damping performance

Recommended Pairings

Use with Suspension Tools, our gassing tools, and follow our suspension setup tips after reassembly.
