Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG – How it all began
- Founded 50 years ago by Wulf Gaertner alias “Mr. Autoparts“
- The founder lived in central America from 1955-57.
- In the beginning he exported cars into this part of the world.
- Driven by his passion – Porsche and car races – he had the idea to sell the needed spare parts of German producers into this market.
His ideas soon travelled around the world....

Shock absorber
Without damper With damperDefinition:
A shock absorber is a mechanical device designed to smooth out or damp a suddenshock impulse and dissipatekinetic energy to heat energy
In a vehicle, it reduces theeffect of travelling over roughground. Without shockabsorbers, the vehicle wouldhave a bouncing ride.

Twin tube shock absorber
Design:
• Inner Tube / working cylinder totally filled with oil• Outer tube / reservoir tube filled with oil & gas• Connection of both tubes through bottom valve• Damping is realizied by piston and bottom valve
Characteristics:
• Small hight• Difficulties in heat offtaking• Danger in bubbling during fast movements• Reduction of damping effect at bubbling• Good cost - performance ratio• Only upright assembly in car possible• Heavier than mono tube shock absorber

Twin tube spring strut(McPherson strut)
Characteristics:
• Basic design is identical to twin tube shockabsorber
• Support of the helical spring forces through a spring seat (McPherson solution)
• Wheel positioning of the axle together withcontrol arms
• Transfer of wheel steering• Supporting the braking torques• Piston rod diameter, piston rod guide and piston
are especially sized for higher loads
