FFZ-III shock rubber insert

This is an RC-scale replacement damper rubber made for the Hirobo Freya FFZ-III damper assembly. It acts as the elastic insert in the damper stack and is intended for scheduled maintenance or tuning changes on helicopter suspension and vibration control parts.

Fitting the sleeve is a routine job for hobbyists: remove the damper cap, inspect internal parts for wear, install the new #60 sleeve, and reassemble while checking for smooth piston travel and correct preload. Use compatible damper oil and follow your standard damper rebuild routine; do not force components that do not line up.

When tuning, the rubber sleeve changes the damping feel and small-amplitude response. The label "#60" denotes Hirobo's specified rubber hardness to balance compliance versus rebound control; swapping to alternative hardness sleeves is commonly used to fine-tune response and reduce vibration.

Replace the sleeve as part of routine damper service or if you notice cracks, loss of elasticity, or degraded damping performance during inspections.
Extreme temperatures can alter rubber compliance slightly; check performance across your typical operating conditions and consider different hardness options if needed.
If the sleeve shows no signs of wear and maintains elasticity, it can be reused, but most technicians prefer replacing it to ensure consistent damping characteristics.
