At Perry Parts, we thrive on innovation that delivers performance-driven solutions. One of our most powerful capabilities is the ability to alter the stiffness of our products to tune it for each vehicle we support. This groundbreaking approach enables us to tailor our components to a wide range of vehicle needs, creating products that are both functional and adaptable.

The Science of Stiffness Modulation
Stiffness, measured in pounds per inch (lb/in), defines how much force a product can withstand per unit of displacement. At Perry Parts, we’ve engineered a process to customize this critical property across a vast range—anywhere from 6,400 lb/in for high-stiffness applications to as low as 200–300 lb/in for more flexible requirements.
How do we do it? The secret lies in density modulation. By varying the material density within a component, we can create infinitely adjustable stiffness levels, precisely calibrated for the intended application.

Why Density Modulation Matters
Vehicles come in all shapes and sizes, with unique suspension designs, leverage ratios, and weights. A one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn’t work when it comes to optimizing suspension components.
• Vehicle Weight Variations: A lightweight sedan demands a different stiffness profile compared to a heavy-duty off-road truck.
• Leverage Ratios: Suspension geometries can amplify or reduce forces acting on components, requiring tailored stiffness to perform optimally.
• Suspension Design Differences: From leaf springs to independent suspensions, each design imposes unique stress and displacement characteristics.
Our ability to adjust stiffness allows us to cater to these diverse needs, ensuring performance that aligns perfectly with each vehicle’s requirements.

Applications and Benefits
Our ability to fine-tune stiffness has transformative applications across the automotive and industrial sectors:
• Adaptive Suspension Components: From control arm bushings to bump stops, density modulation ensures components that handle varying loads and stresses with ease.
• Customized Performance: Whether for comfort, durability, or off-road ruggedness, our products deliver exactly the stiffness required.
• Improved Longevity: By balancing stiffness with flexibility where needed, we reduce wear and tear, extending the life of components.
Innovation for Every Vehicle
At Perry Parts, we believe every vehicle deserves a suspension system designed to maximize its potential. By leveraging density modulation, we create solutions that are as versatile as they are reliable.
From high-stiffness components for heavy-duty trucks to softer, more forgiving parts for lighter vehicles, we’re proud to offer products that adapt seamlessly to your needs.

Looking Ahead
As suspension technology evolves, so do our capabilities. Perry Parts is committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with density modulation, delivering parts that lead the industry in performance and adaptability.
Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or cruising city streets, our products are designed to Smooth Your Ride while meeting the unique demands of your vehicle.
