Needle geometry sets the shape of the adjustable range, not just its size. Port area and shim seat geometry decide the damping curve before any adjuster is touched. Öhlins machines the ports rather than casting them, so the edges stay sharp and the flow predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGenuine Service Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins supports units that are decades old, which is why the spare parts list runs to thousands of numbers. Buying the individual part rather than a complete assembly is what makes servicing an Öhlins unit worthwhile. Ask us before ordering if you are unsure: a wrong part in a pressurised unit is an expensive lesson. Where a number has been superseded, Öhlins states the replacement — we pass that on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGetting the Number Right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e06250-08 is the Öhlins number for this position — the same one printed in the service documentation. diameter 14 mm, length 172.4 mm is what distinguishes this number from its neighbours in the range. A scored piston face means oil bypasses the shims entirely. A worn piston band lets oil past the outside of the piston, which shows up as damping that has gone soft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you would rather not open the damper yourself, we can do it — we are an authorised Öhlins service centre and rebuild these units as a matter of routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 06250-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 14 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eLength:\u003c\/em\u003e 172.4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53649396334858,"sku":"06250-08","price":36.82,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/06250-08_14f7acce-45cb-46d3-ad34-137068ec269c.png?v=1788875262","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-bh\/products\/ohlins-piston-rod-external-14-172-4-06250-08","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
