Stable Damping from Kyosho Silicone Oil

Kyosho SIL500000 silicone oil supplies a heavy-duty damping fluid in a 40cc pack for precision setup work. The #500000 viscosity supports tuners wanting reduced body motion and a more planted feel during fast runs.

Role in Vehicle Dynamics

Silicone oil determines how quickly shocks compress and rebound, directly affecting traction and stability. A higher viscosity like #500000 can help limit excessive roll and pitch, making it beneficial for cars that need steadier behaviour on uneven surfaces.

Maintenance and Filling Hints

Always clean shock internals before adding new oil and avoid overfilling, which can alter damping. Pump the shocks a few times to purge bubbles and check for leaks. Regular replacement with clean oil such as Kyosho SIL500000 keeps components running reliably.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Kyosho 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 heavier oil reduce bottoming out?

Heavier oil like #500000 can slow compression and rebound, which may reduce the tendency to bottom out on big hits, though spring rate and travel also play major roles.

Does silicone oil affect shock damping temperature stability?

Silicone oils are generally stable across common operating temperatures, retaining viscosity better than some mineral oils. That said, extreme heat can still alter damping, so monitor performance during long runs.

How should I store Kyosho SIL500000 between uses?

Keep the bottle sealed and stored in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Proper storage prevents contamination and keeps viscosity consistent for future tune sessions.
