What It Is

This position is identified by its number rather than by a dimension. Öhlins uses a piston band rather than metal-to-metal contact, which is what keeps the bore intact. A scored piston face means oil bypasses the shims entirely. The piston carries the shim stacks and meters the oil; its port layout is what makes an Öhlins damper behave the way it does.

Why the Original

Öhlins is one of the few suspension makers that still supplies every position in the exploded view as a single part. The part number is the contract: it defines material, dimension and finish together. Send us the model and serial number of your unit and we will confirm the position before you order. Öhlins numbers do not follow a logic you can guess — always read them from the documentation.

How to Be Sure It Fits

The reliable route is the exploded drawing: find the position, read the number, order it — 00541-03 in this case. Öhlins does not publish a dimension here — go by the number and the exploded view. Port area sets how much oil can pass before the shims begin to lift. A check valve holds pressure in one direction and opens in the other; a worn one lets damping bleed away.

Fitting and Setup Service

We are an authorised Öhlins service centre, so you do not have to source the tools and the nitrogen: send us the damper and we rebuild it with the correct parts and the correct setting.
