Shock oil overview and benefits

This silicone shock oil is formulated specifically for RC shock absorbers so you can alter damping rates while keeping spring preload and ride height unchanged. The fluid works inside closed shock assemblies to modify both compression and rebound characteristics, helping drivers dial in predictable behaviour on different track conditions.

To fit, empty the existing oil, clean shafts and internal parts thoroughly, then top up to the quoted level using a syringe or fill tool. Cycle the shaft slowly to expel air pockets and confirm even travel before mounting the shock back on the vehicle.

For effective tuning, change viscosity in small steps and assess handling impact; thicker oil boosts damping and slows return, thinner oil reduces resistance and quickens response. Note each change so you can revert or repeat preferred configurations during testing.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will silicone oil affect seals or O-rings?

High-quality silicone shock oils like this are typically compatible with common shock seal materials, but inspect seals during service and replace any that show wear to maintain leak-free performance.

How long should properly filled shocks maintain damping?

With correct filling and clean internals, damping remains stable for many runs; however, if you detect softer or inconsistent action or persistent bubbles, perform an oil change.

Best method to remove trapped air after filling?

After filling, slowly compress and extend the shock several times while holding it vertically to coax out air pockets, then top up and recheck travel for smooth operation.
