Keep shocks consistent with Tamiya silicone oil

For hobbyists tuning suspension, the Tamiya Silicone Damper Oil Hard Set (800, 900, 1000) helps stabilise damping performance over a wide temperature range. It is useful whether youre trimming lap times or smoothing out rough club circuits.

What each viscosity does

The Tamiya 53445 package contains three viscosities to suit different track demands:

Pink 800: Light damping that favours quick steering and softer response.
Clear 900: A middle-ground option for everyday running and mixed surfaces.
Light Blue 1000: Firmer damping to control aggressive inputs and heavier impacts.

Each bottle contains 20cc, making them handy for several service sessions. Viscosity numbers indicate fluid thickness; larger numbers equal higher resistance and slower damper movement.

Should I change oil for different temperatures?

Colder days can make oil feel thicker. If grip drops or handling gets sluggish, try a lower grade. For hot running, a higher grade helps maintain damping consistency.

Will this oil work in all Tamiya dampers?

Yes, the silicone oil grades are suitable for standard oil-filled dampers used across many Tamiya models. Check damper capacity and seals when refilling.

Any tips for filling and bleeding shocks?

Fill slowly to avoid air pockets, work the shaft to purge bubbles, and top up so the damper moves smoothly through its travel. Keep spare seals and clean tools on hand.
