FSX was formed in June 1999. At that time, FSX's primary business was the design and installation of industrial process ventilation systems for customers such as Boeing. Industrial Process ventilation itself consists of the development of systems to source capture harmful airborne contaminants produced by fabrication processes. FSX specialized in specifying various filtration media for use in industrial applications. As an offshoot FSX also offered a popular service of cleaning and extending the life of filters, saving industrial customers allot of money. When the diesel particulate filter (DPF) began to appear on diesel transit buses in the Northwest, it was not long before these filters began to fail and plug. The problem with DPF failure was that the cost of replacement and resulting downtime could add up to many thousands of dollars. FSX was called upon to research a solution for this problem while using any and all methods to clean the DPF and keep the buses running.
The TrapBlaster 7 was the cleaning technology that evolved from this effort. The TrapBlaster dramatically extended the life and duty cycles of the diesel particulate filters in the transit buses and later in a wide range of diesel engine applications. Word spread about the FSX TrapBlaster and soon original equipment engine manufacturers were investigating and subsequently adopting the TrapBlaster 7 as the recommended tool for routine cleaning of diesel particulate filters. Today FSX DPF service tools are used worldwide with over 600 in use in North America alone. The FSX reputation for customer satisfaction, durability, and customer responsiveness is unsurpassed since delivery of the first FSX system in February 2008.
In 1907, Gabriel® invented the original automotive shock absorber – followed by the first hydraulic shock absorber, the first adjustable shock absorber and the first air adjustable shock absorber. As transportation and industrialization expanded throughout the 20th century, so did Gabriel.
To this day, we’re still that same innovative, independent American company – building high-performance shocks and struts that cover more than 96% of North American vehicles. Gabriel continues to be one of our nation’s most trusted aftermarket and original equipment manufacturers for light- and heavy-duty vehicles and things you might not imagine, like industrial washing machines and car washes. And of course, as the family car and modern transportation has become more advanced, so too has Gabriel.
We’re constantly adding to and broadening our line and coverage, while endlessly looking to improve on our already high standards in quality, testing and validation. We’ve expanded our line of ReadyMount® strut assemblies, and we continue to Fit- and Ride-test every new light vehicle design – on the specific vehicle application it was designed for and on U.S. roads. Of course, that only comes after we’ve engineered and designed the product to tight tolerances and precision specifications like only Gabriel does. We’re also still one of the rare companies that offers super-finished chromed piston rods as standard on every shock and strut we make – not just the “premium” ones.
Imported brands can rarely say they’ve taken these critical steps. But for us, it’s just one more chapter in a story that’s built on an independent spirit that’s shared by small business owners, service technicians, retailers and do-it-yourselfers across North America. It’s also the right thing to do and it ensures you that every part we make delivers the quality and performance you expect from the company that started the automotive shock absorber industry – the Original Gabriel.
