Where It Sits

16 mm, 264 mm: that is the whole specification, and it has to match what came out. A shaft is measured by diameter and overall length, and both are specific to the unit it belongs to. Corrosion on a stored damper usually starts on the exposed shaft. Chrome or nitride treatment is what lets the shaft run in a seal for thousands of kilometres.

Original Öhlins Part

Öhlins lists this part under its own number in the service catalogue so a workshop can order exactly what it needs. The part number is the contract: it defines material, dimension and finish together. Tell us the damper's model designation and year and we will match the number for you. Where a number has been superseded, Öhlins states the replacement — we pass that on.

Identifying the Right Part

The reliable route is the exploded drawing: find the position, read the number, order it — 05500-03 in this case. diameter 16 mm, length 264 mm is what distinguishes this number from its neighbours in the range. Adjuster shafts run inside the main shaft on units with a rod-through adjuster. Chrome or nitride treatment is what lets the shaft run in a seal for thousands of kilometres.

Fitting and Setup Service

A damper rebuild is workshop work: it needs the unit dismantled, the shim stack rebuilt in the correct order and the gas charge reset. We are an authorised Öhlins service centre and do exactly that in house — send us the unit or ask us to fit the part with your order.
