High-Precision Top Nut for Hobby Builds

The Serpent 402018 Shock Top Nut is engineered to provide a snug and repeatable joint between shock and mount on Serpent cars. Its accurate machining supports consistent damping behaviour so you can keep setups repeatable lap after lap.

Made to Withstand Rough Tracks

Specifically matched to Serpent components, the 402018 Shock Top Nut holds the shock rod securely for dependable performance across bumpy runs. It aids in maintaining preload and rebound adjustments, reducing setup drift during long practice sessions.

Can the 402018 work with aftermarket shocks?

Some aftermarket shocks use the same thread and sizing, but fit varies by brand. Measure thread pitch and shoulder diameter or compare to the original Serpent part to verify compatibility.

What should I check during routine maintenance?

Check for looseness, burrs on the thread and any play at the shock eye. Replace the top nut if it shows signs of rounding or if the shock mount angle becomes inconsistent.

Is thread locking compound recommended?

A light application of removable thread locker can help prevent loosening for high-vibration environments. Use a product suitable for small fasteners and avoid over application.

How do I know when to replace the 402018?

Replace the nut if threads strip, the fit becomes loose or if damage appears after a heavy impact. Keeping spares in your pit box avoids downtime between runs.
