Fine-Tune Gear Diffs with Tamiya 22007 Silicone Oil 5000

Tamiya Silicone Oil 5000, identified by model 22007, is aimed at hobbyists who want precise control over oil gear differentials. It helps dial in how quickly the diff locks and unlocks during direction changes.

How Viscosity Alters On-Track Behaviour

The thick silicone fluid boosts traction stability when you carry speed through bends, making the car more predictable. The user-friendly plastic bottle simplifies filling without removing the entire diff assembly on many models.

Volume and Refill Guidance

Each 40cc bottle is dyed green for easy identification and provides around 22 top-ups for standard touring car diffs, offering good value for regular tuners and racers.

Can I mix viscosities in the same diff?

Mixing different viscosity oils can produce intermediate damping characteristics, but results vary. Trial small changes and record outcomes so you can replicate setups.

Is the green dye safe for gears and seals?

The dye is for identification and should not affect typical gearbox plastics or seals, but avoid getting contaminants into the diff when refilling.

How often should I replace the diff oil?

Replace oil after heavy race days or when you notice inconsistent handling. For recreational use, inspect and refresh every few months depending on track conditions.

Any tips for neat application?

Use a small syringe or dropper and hold the diff over a clean cloth to catch spills. Wipe excess from case openings before reassembly.
