DT-68R

The DK-68 R shock absorber is a next-generation product developed by K-MAN, built on years of racing experience and technological expertise. Its core feature lies in the innovative design that connects the nitrogen reservoir with the hollow piston rod: during compression and rebound, the damping oil circulates between the reservoir and the hollow rod, while both components are positioned at the upper section of the shock absorber. This layout effectively prevents damage to the piston rod from gravel and debris during high-speed racing. In addition, the integration of hydraulic compression and rebound bump stops greatly enhances the shock absorber’s impact resistance under extreme racing conditions. The DK-68 R made its debut at the 2025 Silk Way Rally, where it was fitted to three Kamaz Master trucks and contributed to the team’s sweeping victory of first, second, and third place overall. Beyond truck-class applications in the Dakar Rally, the DK-68 R can also be adapted for T1-class vehicles, delivering stable and outstanding damping performance for the most demanding competitions.
