View delivery optionsView product description
The Thule Step V15 Shock Absorber is a pack of four replacement dampeners for caravan and motorhome owners with a Thule Single Step V10 or V15. It's Thule's own spare, listed under part number 1500602971 in the maker's spare parts list for the Single Step V10 and V15, and it fits both the manual and the 12V electric versions of the step.

The four rubber composite pieces sit symmetrically in the step frame and act as stopping points between the aluminium footboard and the metal arm mounts. They cushion the end of the movement when the step opens and when it folds away. When the step is retracted they take up play, so the step remains quiet over rough roads. They also keep the clearance required to press the microswitch indicator pin, which keeps the step open warning light steady while you drive.

Fitting is a snap-fit into the channels of the step frame, with no tools needed. The entire kit weighs 10 grams. The material is a high-density rubber composite built for the underside of a vehicle, where road salt, gravel, moisture and large temperature changes all act on it.

Which Thule steps does the Step V15 shock absorber set fit?

Shock Absorber Thule Step V15 - 4pcs Features


  • Vibration and Rattle Mitigation: Minimizes vertical and horizontal play when the step is retracted. This prevents annoying metallic rattling sounds from transferring into the vehicle cabin while driving over rough roads.
  • Mechanical Impact Cushioning: Absorbs the sharp kinetic energy generated at the end of the deployment or closure cycle. This protects the main aluminum tread board and structural arm housings from metal-on-metal stress fractures.
  • Switch & Sensor Alignment Support: Maintains the exact spatial clearance required to correctly depress the internal 12V microswitch indicator pin. This prevents the dashboard "step open" warning light from flickering falsely while the vehicle is in motion.
  • Weather and UV Resilience: Constructed from a high-density, automotive-grade rubber composite engineered to withstand harsh underside vehicle environments. This includes resisting degradation from road salt, gravel impact, moisture, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
  • Symmetrical Snap-Fit Design: Molded for seamless, tool-free installation into the dedicated structural channels of the step frame. This guarantees uniform pressure distribution across both sides of the step assembly.
