Car dampers are one of the components that function to provide extra comfort while driving. 

Many people may still think that a good car damper is only for making the car cabin quieter.

In fact, there are other functions of dampers that are not widely known to the public. For example, dampening loud noises from outside the cabin, absorbing vibrations, reflecting sound that makes audio sound better, and even heat insulation. The last type of damper is the most popular and suitable for use in tropical countries including Indonesia, considering the very hot daytime weather. 

Some luxury cars are usually equipped with sound dampening features that work well. However, in mid-range to lower-class cars, the installed car dampers are not very good, so additional car dampers are needed. 

The many choices and brands of car dampers on the market certainly confuse car users. What kind of damper is good for your beloved car? Therefore, you need to be smart in choosing the type of damper. 

Installation of car dampers 

The first thing to consider is the material of the car damper. There are various options, some made from asphalt, gel, foam, aluminum foil, to rubber butyl which has recently become quite popular in the market.

For comfort while driving, installing car dampers should not rely on just one type. In fact, the installation of dampers must be adjusted and consider the parts of the car itself. 

It is advisable to install suitable dampers in every part of the car. Because there are several dampers that are specifically designed to be installed on car doors, cabin floors, under the dashboard, and even the car roof. There are even dampers that are only installed on the hood to dampen heat, vibrations, and noise from the car engine. 

In the installation of car dampers, there are specific calculations to ensure optimal function. Adjust the number of dampers to be installed in each part of the car. 

For example, car doors should ideally have five layers installed, while the cabin floor only needs two layers. Then in all parts, two layers are actually sufficient. However, it should be noted that installing car dampers is not mandatory for all parts of the car. 

You only need to determine which parts are considered the noisiest. Adjust according to your needs to keep the budget in check. 

Tips for choosing car dampers 

When choosing a good car damper, there are three things to consider. 

1. Choose a damper that can reduce noise from outside

2. Choose a damper that has a lightweight because heavy dampers can affect fuel consumption to be more wasteful

3. Ensure how many dampers are needed
