Designed to safely remove the seal head from Cane Creek DB Inline Air rear shocks. This is a low-torque operation (~12 Nm).

Due to the DB Inline’s twin-tube design, the outer damper body rotates while the inner cylinder stays fixed. This is completely normal and expected (opposite of FOX designs).

• ONLY use the non-threaded holes. Do not engage the internally threaded holes or you will damage the seal head.
• Not compatible with coil versions (DB Inline Coil, Kitsuma, or any Cane Creek coil shock).
• Designed exclusively for DB Inline Air (2014 Gen 1 → current Gen 2)
• Zero vertical or horizontal play, seat the tool fully, then apply smooth, controlled torque.

Pair this socket with our Two-Sided Custom Wrench (32 mm / 24 mm) . It works with all Shockwave Parts pin sockets and has a calibrated handle length for accurate torque using a luggage scale.

• Luggage Scale Torque Calculator

A standard adjustable wrench will work, but the closed 32 mm wrench helps keep torque straight and protects fragile aluminum parts.

• Cane Creek DB Inline Air – Full DIY Rebuild Kit

Designed for skilled home mechanics. Always fully depressurize the shock before service, confirm correct pin engagement, and apply torque gradually. Never force the tool. Misuse may damage the shock or the socket. By using this product, you agree to our Terms of Service .
