Precise Shock Tuning with Tamiya 54718 Silicone Oil 1000

If you are calibrating your damper response, the Tamiya 54718 Silicone Oil 1000 gives stable damping properties. Its 1000 viscosity helps smooth out irregular rebound while keeping compression predictable.

Benefits of Using 1000cst Shock Fluid

Damper oil viscosity plays a major role in cornering and stability. The Tamiya 54718 Silicone Oil 1000 sits in the medium range and adapts to many chassis and tyre combos. The 40ml size offers enough volume for several rebuilds or team use.

Practical Use and Identification

The colour marked bottle makes it simple to identify the oil at a glance and prevents accidental swaps with other fluids. It is compatible with standard oil-filled dampers across most RC platforms.

The oil alters damping response rather than spring rate, so you will notice differences in how the car recovers and settles after bumps.
Yes, this medium viscosity suits a wide range of vehicle types including touring cars and many off-road buggies with oil-filled dampers.
Use syringes or graduated droppers for accurate ratios when blending viscosities, and record mixtures for repeatable setups.
