DESCHNER CORPORATION is the originator of the adjustable leak-proof shock absorber and speed regulator.

The company was founded in Los Angeles, California in 1960 by Mr. R. E. Deschner. Mr. Deschner began his career as a graduate of the University of Minnesota with a bachelor of mechanical engineering degree. He quickly rose to manager of engineering at several well-known manufacturing companies making a wide variety of products. This background gave Mr. Deschner the experience to fulfill his passion for inventing high quality, marketable products. At the time industrial shock absorbers were leaky devices that had to be sized for a particular application and speed regulators were bulky, leaky and erratic. Mr. Deschner patented a unique seal design that made his shock absorbers and speed regulators absolubbby leak proof. He also developed adjustment mechanisms that enable the same product to fit a wide variety of applications.
