Dial In Your Handling with Tamiya VG Gear Differential Oil 1000

Tamiya VG Gear Differential Oil 1000 gives a consistent silicone base for fine tuning your RC diff. It helps reduce unpredictable responses and improves stability when changing pace on track or rough ground.

Model Fit and Typical Uses

The oil is compatible with a range of Tamiya gear differentials, including the TRF417 Differential Gear Unit, TA06, and TA05 Gear Diff Unit. Changing oil weight or filling technique broadens the tuning options for different driving conditions.

Why Use Silicone-Based Differential Oil

Silicone fluids hold their viscosity better across a wide temperature range, so diffs behave more predictably between short bursts and longer runs. That makes silicone oil useful for hobbyists who want repeatable setup results.

It fits Tamiya gear units such as the TRF417 Differential Gear Unit, TA06, and TA05 Gear Diff Unit, and can be used in other similar silicone-fill diffs where compatible.
You can blend silicone oils of different weights to achieve intermediate locking characteristics, but mix carefully and test on track to confirm the result.
Yes, silicone oil is less affected by ambient humidity and temperature swings than some mineral oils, helping keep diff feel consistent near the coast or in variable weather.
