Wall thickness and bore finish are what let a cylinder hold pressure without deforming under load. The cylinder tube is the working bore of the damper: the piston runs in it, and its finish decides how well the piston rings seal. Aluminium tubes are hard-anodised in the bore so the piston band has a hard surface to run against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Original\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe alternative to a service part is usually a new damper, which is why this catalogue exists. The tolerances here are the ones the unit was assembled to, not a pattern equivalent's interpretation of them. Where a number has been superseded, Öhlins states the replacement — we pass that on. For a full rebuild, the seal kit plus the wear parts is usually the sensible order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentifying the Right Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins identifies this position by the number 15083-08 in the exploded view for the unit it belongs to. This position has no published dimension, so the part number is the only reliable identifier. The tube also carries the end cap threads, so thread damage means a new tube. Corrosion inside a tube is terminal: it cannot be honed out without changing the clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAsk us about a full service: as an authorised Öhlins centre we strip, inspect, replace what is worn and set the unit back to its specification.\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 15083-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Cylinder Tubes\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":53652291944714,"sku":"15083-08","price":69.74,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/15083-08_8700c1d5-ef27-4767-86a0-1a0e202897e9.png?v=1788878506","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/ohlins-cylinder-tube-ttx46-178-15083-08","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
