4010040010 Shock Absorber HUB 65/110 L183 110 N 4-010-04-0010 For Homag Machine

Replacing a worn damper on a Homag machine comes down to three numbers, and 4010040010 matches them: hub 65/110 mm, overall length 183 mm, load rating 110 N. The unit absorbs shock and damps vibration at its mounting point, so the shock load stops travelling into the parts around it. The same damper is written a second way, 4-010-04-0010. If your old unit carries either number and measures the same at the hub, this is a direct swap using the original bolts.

A damper left in service too long fails quietly. Vibration that should be absorbed starts travelling into the machine, the shock reaches the parts on either side, and the first clear sign is usually noise somewhere else. On a Homag machine the damaged part is rarely the one you set out to replace.

The 4010040010 shock absorber answers that with three numbers you can check against the old unit before you order. Hub diameter 65/110 mm, overall length 183 mm, load rating 110 N. The Homag part number reads two ways on one part, 4010040010 and 4-010-04-0010, and both formats sit in machine records, which is how buyers lose the trail between the two.

Its job is narrow and physical: absorb shock and reduce vibration at the mounting point, so the load is taken by the damper instead of being passed on. The unit is maintenance-free in service, with no reservoir to top up and no preload to set, so the check that matters is visual: cracks, leaks or deformation mean replace.

Fitting is a swap rather than an installation. The original bolts come out of the old damper and go back into the new one, the hub has to sit square in the existing mounting point, and the machine is run gently to confirm the vibration has gone.

What this part gives you, in the terms that decide fit and service life:

• Part number, both formats — 4010040010 and 4-010-04-0010 are the same damper, so either number is enough to order against.
• Hub 65/110 mm — the hub is the fit-critical dimension, so measure the unit coming off, not the box.
• Length 183 mm — overall length sets where the unit sits in the mounting point; 183 mm is this part's figure.
• Load rating 110 N — the rating states how much shock this damper is built to take at that point of the machine.
• Absorbs shock, damps vibration — the unit takes the load at the mounting point instead of passing it into the frame around it.
• Maintenance-free body — no oil to top up and no preload to set, so the service action is inspection, not adjustment.
• Visual wear check — cracks, leaks and deformation are the three signs that mean replace, and all three are visible from outside.
• Clean-around rule — dust packed against the body hides those signs, so the area stays clear at every service stop.
• Original bolts reused — the fasteners already on the machine go back on, so nothing extra has to be matched at the counter.
• One part, one decision — no kit, no bracket, no second number to cross-reference before the machine runs again.

When a damper fails you are usually choosing between two bad options: keep running and let the vibration spread, or stop the machine and wait. The part is small; the decision is not.

• Fit is settled before you pay. Three numbers, hub 65/110 mm, length 183 mm, rating 110 N, decide whether the old unit and this one are the same part.
• One number, no cross-reference hunt. Both 4010040010 and 4-010-04-0010 are this damper, so the number in your records or on the old body reaches the same part.
• Vibration stops where it starts. Shock is absorbed at the mounting point rather than carried into the parts on either side of it.
• Short job, not a project. Original bolts, one mounting point, no alignment jig, so the machine is down for the swap rather than for a rebuild.
• A service routine you can keep. Inspect for cracks, leaks and deformation, clean the body, lubricate the moving parts beside it. There is no adjustment step to forget.
• A wear part that announces itself. All three failure signs show from outside the unit, so replacement can be planned into a stop instead of discovered during one.
• Same number next time. The part you log now is the part you reorder later, which keeps the maintenance record readable years on.

Yes, if your old damper measures the same at the hub. Match three figures before ordering: hub 65/110 mm, overall length 183 mm, load rating 110 N, and check that the body carries 4010040010 or 4-010-04-0010.

Yes, they are one damper written in two formats. The compact form 4010040010 and the dotted Homag form 4-010-04-0010 both refer to this shock absorber, so a record using either number leads to the same unit.

Look for cracks, leaks or deformation on the body, and treat any of the three as a replacement signal. Noise or movement that appears somewhere other than the damper is the later sign, by which point the shock has been travelling past it for a while.

No, the original fasteners do the job. Power the machine down, open the access cover, take out the bolts holding the old damper, keep them, then seat the new hub in the same mounting point and tighten to a firm fit without over-torquing.

It is the load this damper is rated to carry at its mounting point, so replace like with like. Fitting a unit with a different rating changes how much shock reaches the surrounding parts, even when the hub and length look right.

No, the unit itself is maintenance-free and has no reservoir to top up. Keep the body clean and lubricate the moving parts beside it, because dry adjacent parts put extra stress through the damper.

Yes, it is a single-part swap at one mounting point. With the machine powered down and the access cover off, the old unit comes out on its original bolts and the new one goes in the same place, so no subassembly has to come apart.

The vibration it should absorb keeps travelling into the machine. That is the path to premature wear in the parts on either side of the mounting point, and it is why a part this size is worth replacing at the first visible sign.
